Four Christmas motets
The compositions of Guillaume Bouzignac (ca. 1587 to sometime after 1643) were important for the development of French sacred music before the time of Jean-Baptiste Lully. Nonetheless his work, surrounded by mystery, has survived in only four manuscripts containing only eleven motets which are ascribed by name to Bouzignac. The present edition contains four a cappella motets for the Christmas season. These are "sacred stories," brief scenes, in which the soprano voice sings in dialog with the other voices of the choir.

Die vorliegende Ausgabe enthält vier Acappella-Motetten aus dem Weihnachtsfestkreis.
musik & liturgie, 5/2016
Bouzignac schafft mit dieser quasi doppelchörigen Anlage - kombiniert mit rhythmischer Raffinesse und melodischem Einfallsreichtum - ganz besondere, schöne Klangräume, die einen Hauch mediterraner Weihnacht anklingen lassen. Eine lohnenswerte Repertoireerweiterung für Weihnachten!
