Harmonia Mundi Fr., 1999
Powerful music, brilliantly directed, beautiful voices
Paul van Nevel and his Huelgas Ensemble have produced many spectacular recordings of Renaissance polyphony. His "Lamentations" is one of the most beautiful and moving. Many composers have set the Lamentations of Jeremiah to music; this CD features the works of three ...
Brumel: Missa 'Et ecce terrae motus'; Sequentia 'Dies irae' /Huelgas Ensemble * P van Nevel

Sony, 2002
Another revelation from Paul van Nevel
Thomas Morley wrote in 1597 that only Brumel and Josquin held the secrets to the older canonic techniques of the composers of the Prima Prattica. In an obviously sign of great admiration Orlando Lassus performed the Missa 'Et ecce terrae motus' over fifty years after ...

Ars subtilior: Dawn of the Renaissance

Harmonia Mundi Fr., 2005
The Ars subtileor rules.
Even though the title is a slight misnomer as more than half of the tracks are post-ars subtileor, this is an absolutely marvellous CD. Starting with Philipoctus de Caserta (ca.1370) and ending with Antoine Busnoys (d.1492), this CD surveys some of the best polyphonic ...
Utopia Triumphans
Huelgas Ensemble
, Paul Van Nevel, ...
Sony, 1995
One of the few essential recordings of Renassance polyphony
Paul van Nevel and the Heulgas Ensemble convey an intensely intimate yet ultimately powerful impression with this collection of gigantuan polyphonic works of mind boggling contrapunctal complexity. If you thought that some of Bach's four part counterpoint was ...
Manchicourt: Motets/Missa/Chansons
Pierre de Manchicourt
, Paul van Nevel, ...
Sony, 1997
It's breathtakingly Beautiful
I came across this kind of Renaissance polyphony choral music while taking a Music History course last semester at school. We were focusing on Renaissance music and the Cantus Firmus, when one day our teacher played Josquin Deprez's Gloria from the Ave Maris Stella ...
In Morte di Madonna Laura (Madrigal Cycle after Texts of Petrarca)

Baldassare Donato

Sony, 1991
Ten stars!
All honour to Sony for keeping this item in stock! My recommendation: Order it before it is too late! All the texts are from Petrarca's Rime in vita e morta di Madonna Laura. The composers are many; the collection is something like the best of prima pratica madrigals, ...
Lassus: Il Canzoniere di Messer Francesco Petrarca
Orlande de Lassus
, Paul van Nevel, ...
Harmonia Mundi Fr., 2004
Totally gorgeous
Orlando Lassus (1532- 1594) is a Renaissance composer who truly stands out as being one of the outstanding Humanist artists of his age. Although Flemish by birth, he was one of the most cosmopolitan composers of his age, who spoke several languages and worked variously ...

Harmonia Mundi Fr., 2007
Exceeded Expectations. Huelgas Ensemble and Paul Van Nevel at their Very Best!
Now, this is what I call Brilliance! The Best performance from the Best Ensemble, the Best recording from the Best label Harmonia Mundi. Thanks to the high quality standards maintained by Harmonia Mundi, this recording is so far the highest resolution we have heard. ...

Sumptous and Splendid Performace
On original instruments. Recorded in 20bit this CD is of excellent quality. The piece combines theatre and music (early opera) of a high standard. Any fan of Monteverdi's Sacred vespers will love this.

Harmonia Mundi Fr., 2002
Order before it is too late!
Many of the small compositions here are intellectually stimulating, others are touching, some are both - and all are beautiful. One of many great performances by Huelgas Ensemble and its director Paul Van Nevel. Much of their CDs are sadly out of print, so I ...
Ferrabosco: Psaume 103; Motets & Madriguax
Alfonso (i) Ferrabosco
, Paul van Nevel, ...
Harmonia Mundi Fr., 2005
A revelation
There is nothing that Paul van Nevel loves to do more than to upset the apple cart of convention with discoveries that force us to throw out the textbook and rewrite the history of a whole epoch. For that he gets categorized by the intellectually conservative as being ...
Cipriano de Rore: Johannes-Passion
Cipriano de Rore
, Paul van Nevel, ...
RCA Records, 2000
Instruments make this work interesting
This seems to be a regular renaissance choral work, but Huelgas Ensemble has done it in a way that the work becomes far more interesting; they use different renaissance instruments for the different parts of the work, describing the different moods of the passion ...
