Recording: Sunday the 26th of August 2018, in TivoliVredenburg Utrecht.
The 'Missa L’homme armé super voces musicales' is the first of two settings of the ordinary of the mass by Josquin Desprez, using the famous 'L’homme armé' tune as their cantus firmus source material. The earliest source containing the mass is the Vatican manuscript CS 197 (ca. 1492-1495) and our work is based on that score. In Rome inside the Papal circle instruments were almost forbidden. However, the earliest print of masses, in Petrucci’s Misse Josquin of 1502, points to a wider dissemination. The mass was probably performed not only in Rome, but also in quite different places and at different times, and was also adapted for instruments.

In war time , the humanity needs people with this kind of project, for example, Josquin Desprez's masterpieces.

[@marougscholten4184]

Here one can hear the voices as perfect instruments sounding in peace-full harmony.
And the musical instruments have voices .they sing and lamentate .they dance and mourne .
Its a marriage in grandeur
I am a Dutch woman .
Forgive me my mistakes

[@agogobell28]

My god, I love that shawm timbre.

[@alexandermackay-smith2364]

And I, the smooth, mellow depth of the dulcian.

[@notaire2]

Die beste Kombination der milden Töne aller historischen Instrumente und der durchsichtigen Stimmen des ganzen Chors. Die lateinische Aussprache ist auch präzis. Echt authentisch!

[@germansurdey6525]

Die lateinische Ausprache ist NICHT praezis ! Es ist Kirchenlatein mit italienischen Ausprache.Man weis seit vielen Jahren, dass die lateinische "C" sich wie ein " K" aussprach. Nicht wie eine TCH !. sonst ist es aber gut.

[@maxyount1452]

From heaven, a pure feast in sound, and music from one of the major musical minds of history!

[@musemr7277]

Gorgeous

[@shimasam4228]

この楽曲をこうして聞くことができるのは本当に素晴らしいです、ありがとうございます。

[@joselopes2293]

What a magnificent mix of works from the Renaissance period. Including Josquin’s masterpieces. The set of voices is amazing and the direction is superb. Bravo for the present recording and for the pleasure it gives us to listen to it, since one rarely finds a composition of works by musicians as extraordinary of this period as these.

[@richardhyde5480]

Formidable! This music has now inspired me though four winters. Thank you!

[@jeansauter5222]

Fijn dat het festival ook weer deze mensen heeft uitgenodigd. Wat is het heerlijk daar na te luisteren!!!!! Bedankt

[@fabiandimaspratama]

Salutes, from Indonesia

[@alexdesslin]

ces anciennes et géniales musiques exhalent toujours un extrême plaisir !!

[@mariavanhoof7961]

Erg mooi concert , ik heb genoten

[@ggoocchhaann]

The musical performance of your vocals and playing old type instruments is splendid. This performance expresses the relationship between religion and music in ancient times in Europe. The shout of the souls existing in the bottom of their hearts brings us into Heaven. Unfortunately it is difficult for our oriental races to feel their sympathy. However this performance should be taken over to next generation. Keep on playing!!

[@dickden8952]

Volgens Maarten Luther was Josquin Desprez de 'meester van de noten' en niet de 'knecht' . Zo te horen had hij gelijk! Naast het mooi musiceren ook heel mooi ruimtelijk opgenomen.

[@dreamcatchersong]

What an encore - using the full auditorium, such a terrific treat for the audience!

[@marlainadonatoa.k.a.willow4241]

One of my favorite performances in the world... Looping this for days! Thank you, beautiful musicians for keeping this divine music alive. Simply sublime, all of it.

[@TenorCantusFirmus]

Josquin at his best, and that's something said.
And those lovely shawms just add even something more.

[@Chompchompyerded]

Wow! Excellent! There is nothing else to say.

[@carloscarrillo2586]

Saludos a todos el grupo desde Nicaragua. Excelente interpretación. Gracias por compartir.

[@macdonald59]

Finalmente un'esecuzione magnifica, con strumenti, della splendida messa 'L'Homme Armé " super voces musicales di Josquin Desprez!!

[@jesusgarcia9351]

Thanks for sharing this wonderful concert. Nothing can beat Josquin’s music

[@dreamcatchersong]

Super music, so well performed. Good for my soul, if I have one ;)

[@dill_peanuts_]

This entire performance is the most gorgeous thing I have listened to, pure bliss ❤️

[@micheal49]

Oh thank Ganesh! Finally, a performance of Renaissance music without drums! Thank you so much!

[@raulperez8347]

una maravilla o una gozada

[@HarpsichordVinylGallery]

Dank u avrotros het was een groot voorrecht bij dit concert te zijn en nog zo heerlijk alles te kunnen herkauwen. Mooie cameratechniek en alles tiptop geregisseerd. Wederom hulde!

[@FLYINGJAN1948]

Dank voor deze mooie muziek klanken

❤❤

[@heavynov]

Thank you so very much!

[@mcburcke]

Beautifully done, all! Thank you.

[@TheGloryofMusic]

As a keyboard player Marco Mencoboni's approach is somewhat untamed. But he is original and a genius--he can play Frescobaldi's Fiori Musicali from memory!

[@julaalt]

Obra magnífica.
Si bien era costumbre tomar melodías populares, anónimas para crear otras, lo que me suena raro, es el tipo de mensaje de la original insertada en una misa...🤔

[@enricomiaroma6802]

ragazzi... il canto gregoriano non perdona se non sei super a posto. Belle esecuzioni comunque! Complimenti

[@fredamel]

Simply wonderful!

[@jackelinesilva7181]

É perfeito!!!!

[@r.i.p.theovangogh1848]

Que maravilha!

[@luizcarlosfigueiredo7923]

Muito obrigado.

[@paulsmith5752]

Great instrumentalists and Mass singing - shame the plainsong wasn't together...

[@meownyan3925]

wow 2 ensemble che amo che eseguono insieme un pezzo di Giosquino. Perché queste cose non si fanno a Bologna? :( Le uniche cose di un certo livello rimaste sono la Cappella di San petronio 3 volte l'anno se va bene ed eventualmente l'Odhecaton quando è ospite del museo. Per il resto solo eventi "piccoli". Tanti saluti ad Alberto Allegrezza che seguo sempre dall'ombra sia dal vivo che in discografia. Daje che vogliamo il bis del Banchieri eseguito a Villa Mazzacorati qualche anno fa! :)

And the prize for the best bob-up-and-downer goes to ....?

[@lucaottavi3198]

Could someone tell me the actual title of the first piece?

[@johnfisher247]

Let's be authentic and only have male instrumentalists as is proper to the period. Females can sing if it's a popular song sung by all in the period. The Gregorian chant is still sung to this day in the traditional liturgy.

[@samuelcabellogonzalez6418]

You guys, there's a problem. Josquin des Prez wrote 3 Ave Marias, so how we're going to know which one is it?

[@introsig7696]

See the description of the video

[@notay5947]

Decent.

[@emieltijtgat8027]

when does missa l'homme armé starts? this is for a school thing. so could you please answer.

[@emieltijtgat8027]

Kyrie

[@moranletouze1449]

Kyrie starts at 7:10

[@daboukir]

Toujours gênant que ce répertoire soit donné en salle de concert :(

[@kaybrown4010]

I agree. There’s no lack of Gothic cathedrals in Europe.
