Italian Renaissance Vocal Ensemble

Cinquecento is a vocal ensemble that specializes in Renaissance music. The group, named after the Italian word for 'five hundred' (referring to the 16th century), is composed of six male voices and was founded in Vienna. The ensemble is known for its focus on the repertoire of the Habsburg court, and they have gained recognition for their performances and recordings of works by lesser-known composers from this period as well as more established figures. Their approach to music-making combines scholarly research with a commitment to lively and expressive performances that aim to recreate the soundscapes of the Renaissance era. Cinquecento has received critical acclaim for their albums, which often explore sacred music, including masses, requiems, and lamentations. Their work has contributed to a deeper understanding and appreciation of Renaissance polyphony.
