Charpentier: Te Deum / Missa Assumpta Est Maria
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The magnificent Te Deum for chorus, eight soloists, trumpets, winds, and strings was Charpentier's first modern "hit." (Its prelude is now world famous as the signature theme for Eurovision.) The movements alternate, in the manner of a grand motet, between solos or small ensembles (some of which are surprisingly calm) and majestic choruses. The Missa Assumpta est Maria is more gently scored for six-part choir with soloists, flutes, and strings; its gracious lilt makes a marvelous contrast to the opulence of the Te Deum. The Litanies de la vierge are a series of eight petitions to the Virgin Mary bracketed by a Kyrie and an Agnus Dei (which share melodic material with the Assumpta Mass). Les Arts Florissants capture every nuance in these works, demonstrating again their preeminence in French Baroque music. --Matthew Westphal

Boxed in a sturdy, handsomely produced lift-top container, this set of six perennial favorites from the Harmonia Mundi catalog is a beauty. It seeks to catch 10 centuries of sacred music, and it does that and much more. Each of the recordings is lauded, some of them intensely favored, by fans of early music. The Deller Consort's Gregorian Chant collection, for example, has been around for decades, delighting listeners with its austerity and methodical rhythms. It's a prize, as is the inestimable Marcel Peres and Ensemble Organum's 1986 recording of Josquin Desprez's Missa pange lingua (available separately as a single CD), by now an early-music evergreen. Peres touches the piece with his curious, rattling brilliance. For the collection of Bach's motets (available separately as a single CD), we get Rene Jacobs and the RIAS-Kammerchor, who tackle these pieces in a recording cut in 1995 with electrifying leaps on the notes. Among the six CDs in this box, none strikes with the thunder of William Christie's Charpentier Te Deum from 1989 (available separately as a single CD), a performance that can easily have even the most spiritually skeptical looking skyward for the deus ex machina that's powering the lit brass and bursting tenors. Then there's the 77-minute Beethoven Missa solemnis (available separately as a single CD), driven by Philippe Herreweghe (in 1995). This is an amazingly heartfelt performance, with waves of force that never stop. Little here packs the deliberate wallop, however, of Francis Poulenc's absurdly mesmerizing Stabat Mater, under the direction of Serge Baudo (available separately as a single CD), who takes this 1985 issue to heights that leave the listener breathless. When slow and in the lower registers, the piece stirs, and when booming with the fever of thinking of the divine, it oscillates the soul. --Andrew Bartlett

When the Te Deum and Mass were first recorded in the mid-1950s, they introduced many listeners to a French Baroque master of the highest level. Today these works, along with the beautiful Litanies, retain their power to charm and amaze. Charpentier's church music is one of the largest bodies of unknown masterworks in the literature of music. From the grandeur of trumpets and drums to the beautiful intimacy of the vocal recitatives, this is deeply satisfying music. The old recordings, overinflated and inauthentic, seemed to have more grandeur than the modern, state-of-the-art, stylistically aware versions. But Christie and his ensemble do truly beautiful work for Charpentier, with fine, transparent recording and complete texts in the booklet. --Leslie Gerber

Outstanding interpretation of Charpentier.......2002-11-13
In my opinion, nobody else in his era wrote such beautiful harmonies as did Charpentier. I have found that many recordings of Charpentier's works are sung with tempos that are far too fast to bring out the underlying beauty in the music. A good example of this is Emmanuel Mandrin's "Grâce et grandeurs de la Vierge" (even though it is a different selection of music). He managed to make "Quam Pulchra Es", one of the most beautiful love songs ever written, sound almost like circus music.
This CD shines on all levels; interpretation, sound quality, and quality of the singers. You are hearing Charpentier at his best here, with the intensely emotional and moving harmonies that make his work so appealing to me, notably "Te per orbem terrarum", "Dignare Domine", and "Fiat misericordia tua Domine."
The more instrumental works are likewise well done. I highly recommend this recording!
