Taracea (Spanish) is defined as ‘an inlaid decorative work made from small pieces of different coloured woods and other fine materials, arranged to form intricate geometric shapes’ (liner notes). This is exactly what is represented in this colourful and eclectic mix of music, most of which has been specially arranged for recorders by the artists on the recording. The works span the ancient and modern eras – from Christopher Tye and Antonio de Cabezón to Frans Geysen and Aspasia Nasopoulou – and many have been adapted from Renaissance and Baroque sacred vocal compositions; one of the challenges pertaining to this music is evoking the original sung idiom through instrumental language.
Recorder quintet Seldom Sede was formed in 2009 after the five performers met at the Amsterdam Conservatoire. Among the awards won by the group are First Prize at the 2009 Concours International d’Ensembles de Flute in Le Mans, France (their debut) and the Interpretation Prize at the 17th Concours International de Musique de Chambre d’Illzach in 2011 by a unanimous jury. The ensemble has been hailed as ‘Outstanding because of their excellent musical interpretation and beautiful choice of repertoire’ (Frédéric de Roos, 2009) and has appeared all over Europe in concert series and festivals. The musicians perform on a collection of more than 50 recorders.
