Zeronove / I Pizzicanti / Lukas Wanner – Händel: Funeral Anthem for Queen Caroline / Zelenka: Missa Paschalis CD

This double CD brings together two of the most remarkable sacred works of the eighteenth century, composed within different cultural and confessional contexts yet united by their extraordinary expressive power: Jan Dismas Zelenka’s little-known Missa Paschalis, ZWV 7, and George Frideric Handel’s Funeral Anthem for Queen Caroline, HWV 264. In the interpretation by the ensembles Zeronove and I pizzicanti, under the direction of Lukas Wanner, these works reveal their full emotional and dramaturgical depth.
