Gombert: Chansons and Motets cover
Released

As the popularity of Renaissance choral music has grown in recent decades, one of the most common ways of presenting a composer’s works has been to create programs that put sacred songs alongside secular ones. On this recording, the excellent Capella Alamire ensemble presents both sacred motets and love songs by Nicolas Gombert, a composer of the Franco-Flemish School who flourished in what is now northern France in the early 16th century.
