Schutz Italian Madrigals
Heinrich Schutz [1585-1672] composed his Opus 1 Italian Madrigals under the tutorage of Gabrieli, but nonetheless they are 19 beautiful works, mostly for 5 voices.
Seems that there are no current versions available on CD at the moment, although you can get some used. As far as MP3 albums, there are two from Harmonia Mundi and Berlin Classics that would be worth checking out.
