Messiaen: La Nativité Du Seigneur – Francesco Botti

Messiaen is perhaps one of the most spiritual composers of the twentieth century, his music, fundamental for the evolution of contemporary language, is often characterized by themes related to religion and music of extreme intimacy and introspection. The masterpiece La Nativité du Seigneur is no exception, which sees here the union of the organist Francesco Botti, on his recording debut, with the vocal part of Don Giuseppe Fusari who performs the Gregorian intonations linked to the liturgy of the composition itself. A work of intense religiosity that, thanks also to the masterful interpretation, manages to cross every culture, even the most distant, with its message.
