Mechelen / A Nocte Temporis - Te Deum & Histoire De La Femme Adultere [CD]

Neglected since Charpentier's death, the oratorio genre finds in Clerambault a worthy successor to the master with his poignant version of the biblical story l'Histoire de la Femme adultere. Conducted by Reinoud Van Mechelen, a nocte temporis delivers a masterly performance in which every note reveals the depth of the human soul, while the Chour de Chambre de Namur displays all it's virtuosity in the timeless Te Deum à Grand Chour, a true testament to Clerambault's genius!
