Info & track listings

This is a recording of a solemn celebration of a High Mass, made in the Cathedral of Reims, which is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The pieces of the Ordinary (Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus, and Ite missa est) are those composed by Machault, his Messe de Nostre Dame.

The pieces of the Proper (Introit, Gradual, Alleluia, Prose, Offertory, and Communion) are those for the Feast of the Assumption.A votive Mass honouring Mary, the Saturday Lady Mass, was to become a regular and a popular feature of medieval and later liturgy, both in Reims and elsewhere, … and since the Feast of the Assumption (15th August) happened to fall on a Saturday in the year of Machault’s death, it presented itself as a particularly suitable choice.

The altar of the Rouelle having long disappeared, the altar in the east end of the building was chosen for the celebration, where the full beauty of the Cathedral’s acoustics could best be appreciated.
