Uncle of the great Giovanni Gabrieli, Andrea Gabrieli was one of the greatest and most approachable composers of the High Renaissance. His music has all the colour, imagination and emotional immediacy that we associate with the best Venetian art of the 16th century. The movements of the Mass are separated by instrumental pieces.
