Album lore

En mi amor tal ausencia, issued in November 2020 on Lindoro, collects 17 pieces performed by Música Ficta Colombia that span medieval to baroque, featuring villancicos, gregorian chant, and renaissance forms. The ensemble offers a measured exploration of Spanish and broader Iberian liturgical and secular repertoires, including “Ya, desengaño mío,” a plaintive villancico that exemplifies the album’s sober choral textures and period-appropriate ornamentation.The program includes dances such as “Xácaras por primer tono” and “Jácaras francesas,” alongside contemplative motets and carols, recorded with an ear toward historical fidelity. Though modest in contemporary listenership, this release serves as a quiet beacon for those seeking nuanced interpretations of early music from Colombia’s Música Ficta, a group dedicated to unearthing and transmitting these older repertoires with clarity and restraint.
