Messe de Nostre Dame

Album by Guillaume de Machaut & Taverner Consort & Taverner Choir & Andrew Parrott

Messe de Nostre Dame is a Mass by the French composer Guillaume de Machaut, composed in the 1360s. The work employs ars nova polyphony—combining modal melodies, isorhythmic procedures and contrapuntal textures—to set the Mass Ordinary, and it is one of the earliest known complete polyphonic settings of the Ordinary by a single composer, reflecting a key development in fourteenth-century Western sacred music.
