When Fabrizio Cassol was asked by choreographer Alain Platel to write music inspered by Monteverdi's "Vespri della Beata Vergine" for a dance production, he wrote beautiful baroque music with jazz, oriental and arabian influences.

The result was called "Vsprs" and was used for the performance by the Les Ballets C. de le B. dance group.

For the live performance of the music, Fabrizio joined Aka Moon with a baroque ensemble, a gypsy duo and some classical singers.

The album presents a studio recording of the music.
Astonishing.
