Description:
This fourteen part sonata is not only one of Gabrieli's largest ensembles ~ including a 'coro grave' or low choir ~ but also the most harmonically daring of all his instrumental works. And yet after several minutes of sumptuous and intricate counterpoint, the piece disappears delightfully but surprisingly into thin air.
