‘They exhibited an outstanding blend, with beautifully pure vocal tone and intonation.’ Early Music Review ‘… a pure delight. Intonation was exceptionally pure…the articulation was well-shaped and the accentuations were placed pointedly, though subtly.’ Jerusalem Post A 2013 Hidden Gem: 'This expertly performed collection deserves recognition as a hidden gem.' The Observer 'Tantalizing as the music and the composer may be, the most tantalizing thing about this disc is what is, for me, the appearance of an entirely new and original Early Music ensemble... Profeti della Quinta produces a delightful and remarkably flexible sound, clearly committed and devoted to this music.' International Record Review '...impressive...as are the performers.' Early Music Review '...indescribably beautiful.' LA Times 'Recommended for those interested in this unique composer and for lovers of the early Baroque in general.' AllMusic.com Go behind the scenes with Profeti della Quinta in this special video. Video The programme encompasses Rossi's many-faceted talents both as a court composer in the service of the Gonzaga family and as a unique innovator of devotional music for the synagogue. The award-winning a-cappella ensemble, comprising five core male singers, is joined for this recording by Katya Polin and Eva Saladin (violin) and Ori Harmelin and Ryosuke Sakamoto (theorbo). The native Hebrew speaking singers specialize in the music of the Italian Baroque and have an immediate connection to Rossi as a Jewish Italian composer. In naming Profeti della Quinta winners of the 2011 York Early Music Young Artists Competition, producer and judge Philip Hobbs commented: ‘Profeti della Quinta's stunning authentic performance practice and quality of execution was truly magnificent.' The ensemble has recorded an accompanying documentary about Salomone Rossi, filmed in Mantua (Hebreo: The Search for Salomone Rossi by Joseph Rochlitz in 2012). Opera Lounge
