La Venexiana (founded 1998) is an Italian early music ensemble founded and led by Claudio Cavina, an italian countertenor and conductor. Cavina studied in Bologna with the American singer and musicologist Candace Smith, and then with the Swiss baritone Kurt Widmer and Belgian countertenor and conductor René Jacobs at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis,〔(La Venexiana website - Claudio Cavina )〕 then appeared regularly as a countertenor soloist and in choral works. La Venexiana, taking its name from an anonymous comedy La Venexiana (play) ("The Venetian Girl" c.1537) was created to focus on the core 4 and 5 voice madrigal repertory of Sigismondo d'India, Luzzasco Luzzaschi, Luca Marenzio, Barbara Strozzi, Gesualdo da Venosa and Claudio Monteverdi. The ensemble has later broadened to be the base of Cavina's productions and recordings of operas by Monteverdi and Francesco Cavalli.〔(Guardian - review of La Venexiana's recording of Cavalli's Artemisia )〕 With Cavina's increasing focus on opera, members of the ensemble have concurrently formed La Compagnia del Madrigale which has continued the Gesualdo series on Glossa. ==Discography== * 1992 - Luzzasco Luzzaschi: Concerto delle Dame * 1996 - Marcello: Arias and Duets * 1997 - Barbara Strozzi: Primo Libra de' Madrigali (1644) * 1998 - Amori e Ombre: Deuts and Catatas * 1999 - Handel: The 10 Italian Duets * 1999 - Claudio Monteverdi, Luca Morenzio, Sigismondo D'India, Luzzasco Luzzaschi: Madrigali * 1999 - Monteverdi: Settimo Libro di Madrigali * 1999 - Luzzaschi: Quinto Libro de' Madrigali * 1999 - Marenzio: Ninth Book of Madrigals * 1999 - Sigismondo d'India: Terzo Libro de Madrigali * 2001 - Sigismondo d'India: Primo Libro de Madrigali * 2001 - Marenzio: Il Sesto Libro de Madrigali * 2002 - Monteverdi: Terzo Libro * 2003 - Giaches de Wert: La Gerusalemme Liberata * 2003 - La Venexiana Live!
