| Summary |
Machaut's extraordinary Messe de Nostre Dome was not only the first complete mass setting in history, but also the first whose composer can be identified, making it emblematic of the Ars Nova style of the 14th century. In this recording, the Orlando Consort performs the mass in parallel with a work by Tarik O'Regan which was inspired by it. Scattered Rhymes links two texts from teh same period as Machaut's mass, on by Petrarch, the other an anonymous English poem. Both of them subtly combine earthyly and divine love, while the music blends polyphonic tradition and contemporary inspiration |
