PRESS:

"The Venetian Marco Uccellini (recorder!) or the Spaniard Antonio de Cabezón performed colourful virtuosities. The choir "InVocare" celebrated finely graded a capella singing with Orlando di Lasso, Leonhard Lechner or the Flemish Giaches de Wert, among others: lyrical, spiritual, cheerfully hearty. Vocally and instrumentally, the artists were equally impressive in the mixed pieces, especially in the large sound tableaus at the beginning with Gregor Aichinger's magnificent work on a Fugger wedding and as a finale with Cristofano Malvezzi's festive "A voi reali amanti". Great applause."
