“Scusa!! Excuses,” wrote Claudio Monteverdi on December 29, 1616, to a friend. He had not been in touch for a while. “There was so much work to be done for Christmas.” As maestro di cappella of the famous San Marco in Venice, he was always incredibly busy in December composing for the evening service. So busy, in fact, that music by others was also performed. La Cetra reproduces a Christmas Eve in Venice with music by Monteverdi and his contemporaries. For these Venetian Vespers, Andrea Marcon has selected the finest parts from Monteverdi’s *Selva Morale e Spirituale*, complemented by works by Gabrieli, Grandi, and others. “Utterly irresistible and uplifting,” according to The Times.
