ENSEMBLE ORGANUM, MARCEL PÉRÈS

Description:

A shocker in the history of ancient music performance. Dense medieval fragrance. Praying for the reconstruction of Notre Dame Cathedral, which was destroyed by fire, Perez's "Notre Dame Mass" appears with a new jacket. It is a masterful performance with a rich medieval fragrance. Included here is the oldest Mass composed in the Mass Ordinary as far as the composer's name is known. The performance by Perez and his colleagues, who have studied vocal music of the medieval and Renaissance periods, still surprises us with its differences from the usual image of the Mass, such as the long, drawn-out bass notes that sound like a reed organ and the abundant use of the technique of hiccup-like hockeytus. This is a brilliant and shocking performance. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this CD will be donated to the rebuilding effort through Harmonium Nundi. King International
