An extravagant jest by Orlando di Lasso.
From the flamboyant Mauresques, inspired by the Commedia dell'arte, to the equally scurrilous French Chansons, the Ensemble Clément Janequin bring all their talents to bear on this extravagant jest by Orlando di Lasso.
Founded in Paris in 1978 the Ensemble Clément Janequin devotes itself principally to the secular and religious music of the Renaissance. Its interpretations of the Parisian chanson are regarded as authoritative, and recordings of works like Les Cris de Paris, Le Chant des Oyseaulx, Fricassée Parisienne and La Chasse have brought back to life one of golden ages of French music. Now available to a wide audience, the music of Janequin, Sermisy, Anthoine de Bertrand, Costeley, Roland de Lassus and Claude Le Jeune illustrates the contrasts in which the Renaissance took such delight… On the initiative of its musical director, the Ensemble Clément Janequin has appeared in the leading concert halls of Europe and in Japan, Canada, the United States and South America. As a soloist in a wide variety of operatic productions Dominique Visse has proven himself to be one of the most talented countertenors of his generation. He has appeared in a large number of baroque works (recorded with René Jacobs and William Christie, among others) and participated in the first performance of Outis, one of Luciano Berio's latest stage works, at La Scala in Milan (October 1996).
Las ! me faut-il
Quand mon mary vient de dehors
Si du malheur
Une puce j'ay dedans l'oreille
La nuict froide & sombre
Vignon, vignon, vignette
Fuyons tous d'amour le jeu
Un triste coeur
Lucia, celu
Chi chilichi?
O Lucia
Allala, pia Calia
J'ay un mary
Le tems peult bien
Quand mon mary
Un jeune moine est sorti du couvent
O foible esprit
En un chasteau
Elle s'en va
Lucescit jam o socii
Je l'ayme bien
Mais qui pourroit estre celuy
Cathalina
Hai Lucia
Canta Giorgia
