This unique project brings Palestrina’s musical masterpieces to life through adaptations for two accordions.
The Mysterium Duo proudly presents a collection of nine carefully curated adaptations, reflecting a strong artistic identity and offering a thoughtful perspective on the sacred works of Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (c.1525-1594).
Widely regarded as the leading composer of late Renaissance sacred music, Palestrina mastered smooth, balanced polyphony that became the model for church composition and later counterpoint teaching. This repertoire offers a rare journey into the inner polyphonic architecture of Palestrina’s sacred music.
It opens refined and compelling interpretative possibilities while remaining fully aligned with the aesthetic principles of Renaissance polyphony. Through these adaptations, Palestrina’s sacred music is recreated with reverence, clarity, and expressive depth. Each piece preserves the integrity of the original polyphony while revealing new dimensions of breath, resonance, and harmonic light, made possible by the unique voice of the accordion duo.
