Pietro Pace, music and singing master of the Duchess Eleonora Della Rovere of Pesaro, dedicated these mottettos to her on the occasion of her mysterious and unexpected reclusion with the name of Suor Maria. Concealed by a veil of profound ambiguity, Pietro Pace signed compositions for sacred performances, where sensuality and spirituality mingle and alternate. A brief comment: recorded in the monastery of Saint Salvatore di Fucecchio, near Florence, which preserves intact Cesare Romani’s splendid 16th-century organ, the monks hosting us spent sleepless nights ‘spying’ on the intense evocative beauty of these notes inspired by a pure and impossible love.
