Jose De Nebra / Jose De Torres / Francesco Corselli – Alberto Miguélez Rouco

In 1725, José de Torres crafts the narrative of the royal funerals of Spain’s first Bourbon monarchs. At the heart of this tribute, the Misa de difuntos para Luis I, the first Bourbon born on Iberian soil, blends with exquisite finesse the echoes of Versailles with the exuberant splendour of Spanish Baroque. The offering is here completed by the monumental Dies Irae by Francisco Corselli, a Franco-Italian composer, to the glory of Philip V. Alberto Miguélez Rouco exhumes these rare works, bringing the music of the Real Capilla de Madrid to life in the Royal Chapel of Versailles!
