Famed as a singer from boyhood, Orlando escaped several kidnapping attempts ordered by princes who coveted his talent for their courts. He is an extravagant and provocative musical figure, an adventurous artist and cultivated polyglot. On being asked to provide the soundtrack for a documentary on di Lasso by Joachim Thome, Bestion became immersed in the composer's multiverse. This album, an extension of the music for that film, projects the iconoclast di Lasso into our 21st century world.
