Officium by Jan Garbarek - The Hilliard Ensemble

Description: "What is this music? Fundamentally, it's an exploration of what happens when an improvisatory instrumental voice (saxophone) is placed into the world of early vocal music--which has elements of both improvisation and formal structure. In reality, it's an adventure in which the four male voices of the Hilliard Ensemble travel the 14th- and 15th-century territory of Morales and Dufay, visit the 12th century of Perotin, and roam even earlier ages of plainchant, accompanied by the always sensitive and tasteful--and often astonishing--saxophone improvisations of jazz master Jan Garbarek. Sometimes, these new melodies simply accompany; sometimes they transform the common--a routine minor chord, for instance--into a sublime, indescribable moment. The answer to the above question is easy--but it's different for each listener. --David Vernier" - Amazon .com Track List:01Parce Mihi DomineChristóbal de Morales6:4202Primo Tempore[C 14 Czech] – Anonymous8:0403Sanctus[C 14 Czech] – Anonymous4:4504Regnantem Sempiterna[Gregorian] – Anonymous5:3605O Salutaris Hostia[c 1460-1518] – Pierre de la Rue4:3506Procedentem Sponsum[C 15 Hungarian] – Anonymous2:5007Pulcherrima Rosa[C 15 Czech] – Anonymous6:5608Parce Mihi DomineChristóbal de Morales5:3609Beata Viscera[fl c 1200] – Magister Perotinus6:3410De Spineto Nata Rosa[C 14 English] – Anonymous2:3111Credo[C 14 Czech] – Anonymous2:0712Ave Maris Stella[c 1397-1474] – Guillaume Dufay4:1413Virgo Flagellatur[Sarum] – Anonymous5:2014Oratio Ieremiae[Gregorian] – Anonymous5:0115Parce Mihi DomineChristóbal de Morales6:53 Note: Discounts for combined shipping.
