Jacob Clemens non
Papa: Requiem & Motets
The Tudor Choir
Doug Fullington, director
The Tudor Choir adds to its critically acclaimed collection of recordings with
this new CD of music by Renaissance composer Jacob Clemens non Papa
(c.1515-c.1555). Clemens composed in all of the expected genres of his time.
Much of his music is infused with a personal quality that differs from the
generally abstract nature of much Renaissance sacred music. The music on this
disc is a survey of his Latin-texted sacred polyphony, including his intimate
Requiem, plus a Magnificat setting and a sampling of motets. The pieces chosen
for this recording reveal texts that portray such themes as relationships,
family, and remembrance, and therefore demonstrate the unusual
"personal" quality to be found in Clemens' works.
