Guerrero - Missa Sancta et immaculata

Guerrero - Missa Sancta et immaculata


Guerrero, F:

Missa Sancta et immaculata

Hei mihi Domine

Magnificat septimi toni

Trahe me post te, Virgo Maria

Vexilla Regis

O lux beata Trinitas

Lauda mater ecclesia


The Choir of Westminster Cathedral, James O' Donnell (The Master of Music)

Guerrero, Victoria and Morales together comprise the triumvirate at the pinnacle of the Spanish Renaissance, and of these Guerrero was without doubt the most highly respected in his time.

Missa Sancta et immaculata comes from his first published collection of Masses (1566) and takes its theme from Morales’s motet Sancta et immaculata virginitas (‘Holy and immaculate virginity’). Guerrero expands the original four-part texture to include a second soprano line, and the resultant shimmering texture marks this out to be a truly remarkable Mass. This is its first recording.

Two motets, a Magnificat setting, and three Vesper hymns complete this recording, the latter works beginning a long-overdue exploration of the wealth of Hispanic melody, a unique treasury in the chant repertoire. Lauda mater ecclesia is an extraordinary work setting a—somewhat smutty—text (now removed from the liturgy) in honour of Mary Magdalen.

“Exhilarating, full of variety, and spiritually uplifting. Westminster Cathedral Choir are on their very best form, incisive and thrilling. Very highly recommended” Gramophone Magazine

“The music and performances on this disc defy superlatives—just go out and buy it!” Early Music Today

“Spellbinding: a really magnificent achievement” Goldberg

The Choir of Westminster Cathedral, James O'Donnell (Master of Music)

‘This distinguished composer is now suitably represented on disc. Highly recommended’ (Fanfare, USA)

“The richness of the choir well matches Morale's creamy palette. Conductor O'Donnell's leisurely pace allows the full splendour of the polyphony to unfold, while his paragraphing captures the work's proportions.” BBC Music Magazine, November 2008 ****
