Clemens non Papa: Requiem, Penitential Motets

Clemens non Papa: Requiem, Penitential Motets

• New Store Stock

The latest disc from the Brabant Ensemble under their director Stephen Rice features the extraordinary compositional gifts of Clemens non Papa and his Requiem and a selection of motets on a pentitential theme. Despite the popularity of the composer s music during his lifetime, Clemens is a somewhat marginal figure today and many of these motets have never been recorded before. Yet, listening to this music today, one is immediately enthralled by its opulence and harmonic lushness.
