with brass for the first time, the sombre colors of the sackbuts further darkening the tone. The recording interweaving a number of motets, some also receiving first recordings, and a madrigal on death by one of Lassus’ contemporaries in an organ transcription prepared for this occasion. This innovative recording thus takes the listener on a spiritual journey, through the darkness of bereavement to the elevation of the Christian soul after death.
In July 2016, the Chapel Choir of Girton College, together with students of Historic Brass from London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama, went on a tour of the Toronto area of Canada. While there, they gave numerous concerts, sang at two services (including an evensong with the choir of St James' Cathedral) and made a CD recording of music by Orlande de Lassus (1532-1594). However, although Lassus is generally considered to have been the most famous composer of the Renaissance era, the vastness of his compositional output is such that much of it remains unavailable on record. This new CD by Girton Choir is therefore very special, not only because it makes several of Lassus' pieces accessible for the first time, but because it takes full advantage of our relationship with the Guildhall School of Music & Drama (through Jeremy West, Musician in Residence at Girton, and professor of Early Brass at Guildhall) thereby creating a soundworld which is quite extraordinary and a treasured feature of Girton's rich musical life. Lassus' rarely-heard 5-part Requiem (recorded with brass accompaniment for the first time) forms the centrepiece of the disc, and is interweaved by a number of other motets in a programme of beautiful and uplifting music by one of the greatest composers the world has ever known.
