Jean-Joseph Cassanéa de Mondonville – Grands Motets – William Christie





Jean-Joseph Cassanéa de Mondonville 

 Grands Motets 

Les Arts Florissants 
William Christie 
Recording date : 1997



I've missed the anniversary of the death of Jean-Joseph Cassanéa de Mondonville in 2012 (dead in 1772) but it's not too late to share some works of this neglected composer of the Age of the Enlightenment. The Motets are very expressive and have a real dramatic strength (listen to "Elevaverunt flumina", no.4). The Six Sonates en symphonies op.3 blend Italian inspiration and French spirit. Enjoy them.

Many thanks for this one!

Funny; Christie always looks the same. I think he was born with white hair and wearing spectacles.
