Death For Five Voices May 21, 2007

(1995) Cuckoo portrait of Carlo Gesualdo, 16th Century nobleman, composer, and murderer, includes interviews with the people of Venosa about their favorite son; dramatic reenactments of colorful legends and sometimes out of tune performances of his beautiful, but notoriously difficult, madrigals.
"This is the documentary that really runs amok. One of the films closest to my heart." - Herzog.
