Domkerk, Utrecht. Long before upcycling became a trend, there was Josquin Desprez. To this day his inventiveness in processing existing musical material remains unparalleled. The Catalan bass-baritone Josep Cabré and his Companyia Musical focus on a fine example of what Josquin was capable of: the Missa Fortuna desperata, in which the three voices of an Italian song are deployed both separately and combined - a technical tour de force that also happens to sound splendid.
