Escobedo: Missa Philippus Rex Hispaniae
+Cotes: Mortuus est Philippus Rex
+Ferando de las Infantas: Quasi stella matutina
+Lobo: Versa est in luctum; Libera me Domine
Unbeachtet dessen, was nun die Wahrheit über seine Musikalität sein mag, können wir uns glücklich schätzen, im Besitz einiger hervorragender Musikstücke zu sein, die entweder ihm selbst gewidmet beziehungsweise an seine Person und Familie gerichtet waren. Der vierhundertste Todestag Philipps gibt uns die Gelegenheit, eine Reihe bemerkenswerter Arbeiten mit Bezug auf sein Leben und seinen Tod zusammenzustellen. Dabei schufen wir einen Rahmen aus Trauermusik um zwei Werke herum, die aus der Zeit des Beginns der Herrschaft Philipps und den triumphalen mittleren Jahren stammen. Die Bearbeitung der Messe durch Escobedo steht im Zentrum großen Interesses seitens Gelehrter und Musiker. Trotz umfangreicher Diskussionen und Spekulationen konnte sie erst vor kurzem zufriedenstellend transkribiert werden. Man betrachtete sie als nahezu nicht entzifferbar. Doch nun wurde sie unseren Ohren zugänglich gemacht.
After successes with recordings of music by Frank Martin, Ildebrando Pizzetti and Francisco Guerrero, The Choir of Westminster Cathedral now turns to music associated with Philip II of Spain, the fourth centenary of whose death falls this year. Philip was regarded as something of a patron of the arts, and each of the works recorded here was either dedicated to him or composed to honour an event during his reign.
The centrepiece of the recording is Escobedo's mighty Missa Philippus Rex Hispaniae. It is written for six voices in a strong contrapuntal style rooted in the Franco-Flemish traditions of the contemporary Papal chapel, owing much to the generation of Josquin des Prez and successors like Morales, a senior colleague of Escobedo in the choir of the Sistine Chapel (where records show that Escobedo was frequently 'booked' for bad behaviour!). This is the first recording of Anthony Fiumara's pioneering transcription of the Mass—it survives in just one manuscript which is in such bad condition (largely due to ink corrosion) that several of the pages are virtually black.
'Another distinguished release from the Westminster stable' (Classic CD)
'One of the best CDs they have made, with some wonderfully intense readings' (Gramophone)
'Glorious' (BBC Music Magazine)
'A superb disc' (Hi-Fi News)
'A fascinating programme' (Goldberg)
