Ad Astra

About

Let’s go stargazing! Caterina Chiarcos takes us to Heaven with these motets for solo voice dedicated to "Illustrissima Signora D. Antonia Francesca Clerici. Monaca," who was a soloist of the Vespers at the convent of Santa Redegonda in Milan. Giovanni Legrenzi spent a year in Milan, hoping to become the maestro di cappella of the Duomo, before accepting the same position at San Marco in Venice, and he was enchanted by this singer.
