The three
grands motets, Quam
dilecta, In convertendo
and Deus noster refugium,
which Jean-Philippe
Rameau composed from 1713
to 1715 are still
relatively unknown today.
Yet these masterworks can
stand comparison to the
best works of
Michel-Richard de
Lalande. They are
testimony to Rameau's
great contrapuntal
mastery and contain
beautiful lyrical
passages. Quam dilecta
and Deus noster refugium
have survived only in
later sources which
originated in about 1770,
after Rameau's death, and
the works have been
rendered in a scoring
which does not correspond
to his intentions. The
present new edition
attempts for the first
time to reconstruct them
as closely as possible to
their original form. The
edition of In convertendo
is based on Rameau's
autograph score from
1751.
