CHARPENTIER: MIDNIGHT MASS FOR CHRISTMAS

This performance is totally different from the familiar version recorded in 1967 by David Willcocks. This recent recording not only uses period instruments and period vocal techniques, but Marc Minkowski and his Musicians of the Louvre pull the piece out of the early Baroque and move it back to the late Renaissance, which is probably where it belongs. For those familiar with the 1967 recording, this is the shock of the new.
