About This Song
About "Vasquez: Lágrimas de mi consuelo (1st & 2nd versions)" by The King's Singers
The King's Singers excavate Vasquez's 'Lágrimas de mi consuelo' from Renaissance Spain, each tear a polished gem of polyphony. The two versions here are twin mirrors: same sorrow, different light. The music is stately, but the title's 'tears of consolation' hint at grief transformed into something almost serene.
