Most of the musical pieces in this album (madrigals composed during the Renaissance) are idyllic. Love is as old as the hills and yet it is always fresh and new. Its freshness can be marred by neither time nor the evolution of civilization through the centuries. The Renaissance madrigal is a creation that lacks any complex. It comprises the most intimate facets of the soul, the sublime nature of purity and desire. The structure of the madrigal is created with simple and apparently average means. It bears the mark of an age which required ingenuity of content, affectation in verse and vocal virtuosity to win the heart of the woman one loved. This is vocal music that belongs to the soul. The form it comes under belongs to an age in which music was performed by everyone and offered joy to all, an age which knew no barriers between performer and listener. That is why it has always been enjoyed by audiences all over the world. Artis Voice Quartet is a professional vocal group which has been performing since 2001.
