Associate Conductor of The Sixteen, EAMONN DOUGAN, follows up the success of the first two discs in the Polish series with a new recording devoted to one of the most outstanding composers of the Polish high baroque Grzegorz Gerwazy Gorczycki.

The third disc in The Sixteen’s acclaimed series of Polish music, conducted by Associate Conductor, Eamonn Dougan, explores the work of Grzegorz Gerwazy Gorczycki (1665–1734). Regarded as the outstanding Polish composer of the high baroque, Gorczycki studied in Prague and Vienna in his early years and returned to Kraków in 1690 where he took holy orders. He was appointed Magister capellae at Wawel Cathedral in 1698, a position he held until his death. Like his predecessor Bartłomiej Pękiel (COR16110), Gorczycki wrote in both stile antico and stile moderno; the works featured in this recording display his skill in both genres. The Missa Rorate shows his mastery of counterpoint and sensitivity to word-setting, as does Illuxit Sol in which Gorczycki revels in the rhetoric of the text, painting it with lush five-part string writing; Conductus Funebris, a four-movement work setting text from the Burial Service, marries his contrapuntal skills with a more emphatic, declamatory style, while in the Litania de Providentia Divinae, Gorczycki unleashes the full power of his invention as he paints the virtues of "Divine Providence" with a glowing palate of colours.

Eamonn Dougan is The Sixteen's Associate Conductor and has conducted the group throughout the UK and Europe recently to great acclaim at the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam, at the Abbaye de Lessay, France and at the Queen Elizabeth Hall. Eamonn is also Principal Guest Conductor of The National Youth Choir of Great Britain and Chorus Director of Britten Sinfonia Voices. He is also a regular Guest Conductor with Wrocław Philharmonic Choir, Poland. Alongside Harry Christophers Eamonn co-conducted The Sixteen’s 2012 album The Earth Resounds and made his full conducting debut on CORO with 2013 recording ‘Bartłomiej Pękiel’.
