Extraordinary, skilful and atmospheric music. Gramophone's Editor's Choice for Madrigals

The March issue of the prestigious Gramophone magazine brings another great news for Czech music. Gramophone awarded the recording of Bohuslav Martinů’s Madrigals by Martinů Voices and choirmaster Lukáš Vasilek Editor's Choice. An album with six choir cycles was released by Supraphon in January 2018.

“This is a delight,” writes Ivan Moody in the Gramophone review. "Performances are outstanding throughout. The voices are fresh and responsive, and Lukáš Vasilek once again proves that he is a true master of choral conducting. There is also an excellent, detailed booklet note by Vít Zouhar."

Album contains Madrigals (Part-Song Book), H 380, Primrose, H 348, Czech Madrigals, H 278, Three Sacred Songs (Three Legends), H 339, Four Songs About Mary, H 235 and Five Czech Madrigals, H 321.
