About This Song
About "Monteverdi: Selva morale e spirituale, SV 252-288: No. 24, Salve Regina, SV 285" by Dame Emma Kirkby
Emma Kirkby’s crystalline soprano floats through Monteverdi’s ‘Salve Regina’ with fragile authority. The sacred text becomes a quiet drama: supplication edged with hope, each phrase a candle lit in a dark chapel. The tension is between earthly breath and divine silence.
