Bartolomé Escobedo (around 1500 - 1563) was a Spanish composer, singer and theoretician of the Renaissance. He was counted to most outstanding composers of his time, his compositions are movement-technically and in their sound on an extraordinary niveau. The in this edition presented motet "Exurge quare obdomis" represents a development to the psalm-motets by Josquin Deprez. Christóbal der Morales was a coeval of Escobedos and spent most of his life in Sevilla. The four-parts motet "Sancte Antoni pater monachorum" impresses through its simple and intimite beauty.
