Cantate Domino omnis Francia!Cantate Domino omnis Francia! Sacred Music from Seventeenth-Century France
Cloister, CLOCD0105 (2005)

The Ebor Singers
Directed by Paul Gameson
Organ: Peter Seymour
Theorbo: Theodoros Kitsos

This is the choir’s first recording devoted exclusively to French seventeenth-century composers.Composers and works have been selected that represent the evolution of sacred music over the century, from the contrapuntal motets of Du Caurroy (1609) and the first evidence of the new Italian style in France (Bouzignac, Boesset, Du Mont) to the most gifted but most misunderstood composer of his generation, Marc-Antoine Charpentier. The CD also focuses on a group of pieces written by Bouzignac with both musical and historical significance, that celebrates the Siege of La Rochelle, a decisive victory of Louis XIII over the rebel Protestants.
