L'Amorosa Caccia

L’Amorosa Caccia is an ensemble devoted to rarely performed Renaissance repertoire. The ensemble takes its name from the homonymous collection of madrigals published in Venice in 1588. The collection, which showcases musicians active at the court of Mantua, offers a glimpse into the musical life of one of the courts.


The ensemble is the result of collaboration between harpsichord player Fabio Antonio Falcone and recorder player Tímea Nagy in 2015. Their goal is the revival of little know Renaissance instrumental and vocal repertoires, especially frottolas and madrigals.


L’Amorosa Caccia brings together musicians who are all united by the same passion: the rediscovery and study of repertoires in close relation with the cultural contexts that generated them. Their performances and recording have been acclaimed to international recognition.

Il risultato complessivo fornisce un quadro di notevole suggestione.

Falcone is an outstanding player who delivers captivating interpretations on the two instruments he has chosen for this recording. It is also a joy to listen to the instrumentalists, and the two singers have captured the character of the vocal items perfectly.Both singers have very fine voices …
