Guillaume de Machaut

Notre Dame Mass

Ensemble Organum
Marcel Péres, director

   

The first extant setting of the ordinary of the mass is still one of the greatest. I really like this recording of Machaut's great masterpiece, the Notre Dame Mass. The intonation and expert ornamentation give the recording an earthy sounds that is missing on most other recordings I've heard of this work.
