From Nativity to Whitsun, from Annunciation to Assumption, all the high holy days of the liturgical year were, at the basilica of San Marco 'della serenissima republica di Venetia' worthy occasions to deploy incomparable ceremonies. Music played the major role and had to be as splendid and glorious as the golden dome under which it was performed.The celebration of the Holy Trinity was given a particularly elevated status, which implied a first class musical

performance. Choirs as well as an instrumental ensemble and two organs on both sides of the Basilica's chancel were called to contribute to all this splendour. This record is offered at a special price and includes a 2008 catalogue of the Ricercar label.
