ISBN 0571519466. Baroque; Masterwork; Sacred.
The grand motets of Michael-Richard de Lalande (1657-1726), principal Chapel Music Director for Louis XIV and Louis XV, marked the high point of sacred music under the ancien régime. De profundis is the best-known of Lalande's motets, and is a justly celebrated work.
Edited by distinguished scholar Lionel Sawkins (editor of Charpentier's 'Te Deum', also published by Faber Music), this practical performing edition of 'De profundis Clamavi' brings the work of this still relatively unknown composer to light.
