Music from the Lowlands

#08-42: 10/06/08--Utendal & De Monte: The recent project from the Ministry of Flemish Culture with the Capilla Flamenca of Flemish Composers Phillippe de Monte (1521-1603) and Alexander Utendal (1530/40-1581)

#08-44: 10/20/08 [repeat of #06-43] Jacobus de Kerle: Da Pacem Domine: Contentious, controversial, and truly pan-European, Ieper's Jacobus de Kerle has been championed by that most dedicated of Lowlands music proponents, Paul van Nevel with his Huelgas Ensemble--the new disc even includes excerpts from the de Kerle Requiem.

#08-45: 10/27/08--Missa Ego sum qui sum: The rarely-heard works of the later Flemish composer Philippe Rogier (c.1561-1596), stunningly rediscovered by Philip Cave and his ensemble Magnificat.

#08-48: 11/17/08--Solemn Mass of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross: This premier-recording of a previously-unrecorded mass by Palestrina (Missa Sacerdos et Pontifex) in a complete liturgical setting features The Schola Cantorum of the St. Gregory Society.
