Where it came from
Released in 1983 by the state-owned Melodiya label, this record features the Estonian early music ensemble Hortus Musicus performing a repertoire of Italian music from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The ensemble, founded in 1972 by violinist Andres Mustonen, gained significant recognition for its historically informed approach to medieval and Renaissance music at a time when such performances were relatively rare within the Soviet cultural landscape.
The album reflects the group's commitment to reviving long-forgotten secular and sacred compositions using period instruments. The design aesthetic is characteristic of Melodiya's late-Soviet output, utilizing minimalist, austere graphics to present the ensemble's sophisticated interpretations. Upon its release, the record was viewed as a vital contribution to the dissemination of Western European early music in the Soviet Union, showcasing the technical precision and scholarly rigor that defined Hortus Musicus.
