Another recording of Du Caurroy of some merit, this time without
instruments and using choirboys... very Romantic in conception.
Included is a motet in full musique mesurée style
(track #12), as well as others which make some use of the technique.
A recording of the closely related mass of Claude Le Jeune by
this ensemble:
- Le Jeune: Missa Ad Placitum, etc.
