Synopsis

Product Description
For their fourth Glossa Guillaume Dufay recording, and for the first time on CD, Cantica Symphonia present two of Dufays most important polyphonic works - the Missa Se la face ay pale and the Missa LHomme arme, both amongst the first in history to use popular songs for their cantus firmus: Dufays own chanson for the first mass and the anonymous popular tune The Armed Man for the second. Cantica Symphonia opt for performances embracing the use of slide trumpets, sackbuts, fiddles and the organ alongside vocal forces. The accompanying booklet provides scholarly analysis and detail.
