A program of French music for the Good Friday liturgy, with polyphony drawn from the tenth motet collection printed in Paris by Pierre Attaingnant (1534). In terms of performance practice, this recording represents a very welcome experiment in applying Eastern-style vocal techniques to western polyphony, apparently inspired by Marcel Pérès.
