I second that! The Rore album is stunning. It also features a Ceterone.

Thanks Ron! I wish more Early Musicians would turn to their natural voices.

And polyphonic madrigals are rarely sung in a natural voice, many
performances I find very irritating.


Apart from sources, there is another way to approximate the sound of the
voice around 1600:

A Jesuit traveller in Afghanistan in the early 17th century witnessed a
singer and wrote that he sang exactly like Europeans, with an open
natural voice, as opposed to the forced "in the throat" style of (East)
Asians.

(Unfortunately I forgot to bookmark the source, but I will look for it
again, if anyone is interested.)

Anyway - we can listen to Afghan singers today, and it's like what we
would expect:

Note that the singer carefully pays attention to make the text clear,
rarely using graces. And we don't see gaping mouths either.

This type of voice I would like to hear in Early Music.
