Couperin: Messe des Paroisses (1690) - Plain-chant baroque alterné

Album by Ensemble Organum & Jean-Charles Ablitzer

Couperin: Messe des Paroisses (1690) — Plain-chant baroque alterné is an album by Ensemble Organum centred on François Couperin's 1690 Mass. The recording juxtaposes plainchant with baroque alternatim practice, combining a cappella chant and period-informed instrumental/vocal textures to reflect the liturgical alternation and to illustrate the work's place in the transition from late 17th-century chant tradition to emerging French baroque sacred style.
