More Info:

Much of Giovanni Gabrieli's music was composed for grand ceremonial occasions and 2015 marks not just the 400th anniversary of the publication of this collection of works from 1615, but also the 500th anniversary of the completion of King's College Chapel. The Choir celebrates these anniversaries with the first classical album ever to use Dolby's new Atmos technology, which uses ceiling-mounted speakers tp reproduce the acoustics of the Chapel with unprecedented realism. Paying homage to one of the most influential musicians of the Venetian Renaissance, Gabrieli was a prolific composer of sacred vocal and instrumental music. The Choir is joined by His Majesty's Sagbutts & Cornets playing faithful recreations o instruments from Gabrieli's time. This recording is also available in SACD and Pure Audio Blu-ray formats"
