description
Francesco Feo doubtless numbers among the most important Neapolitan composers of the first half of the eighteenth century, and the Mass and Psalm (Psalm 110: »Confitebor tibi Domine«) presented here promise to get underway the long-overdue rehabilitation of one of the best Italian composers of his generation. After all, Feo, who lived and worked in Naples throughout his life, was very famous and successful in Italy at the time, above all owing to his oratorio San Francesco di Sales (1734), and works by him were performed at the Saxon-Polish court in Dresden. Masses normally consisted only of the Kyrie and Gloria in Neapolitan church music; if the other parts were set, then they were hardly more than »appendages.« This also applies to the mass in Neapolitan church music style being heard here for the first time. »Matthias Jung and the Vocalensemble once again demonstrate their experience and stylistic flawlessness in the interpretation of Early Music, with their vibrant performance style, energetic commitment, and emphasis on the bright and cheerful element meriting special mention • (Dresdner Zeitung, Feo concert review).
