In European baroque music, the great motets are one of the most representative forms of French music. Originally developed for the King's Chapel by Du Mont and Lully, and brought to completion by Delalande during four decades in the service of Louis XIV, these works which resonated every day at the King's Mass, were then the pillars of programs of the Concert Spirituel created in 1725. It was then that two new masters in this style would emerge: Rameau and Mondonville.

Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) had composed his great motets even before his arrival in Paris. They are an exception in the genre: they were not written for the King's Chapel, but around 1720, when Rameau was organist at Clermont-Ferrand Cathedral! Their mimicry with the master's future operas is however evident, as the musical flavor that emerges is exceptional and subtle. His two masterpieces are the motets In Convertendo and Quam Dilecta collected here.

Drawing lessons from both Lalande and Rameau, Mondonville (1711-1772) was for his part a real star of the Concert Spirituel with his motets, whose success earned him a post at the Royal Chapel! The inventiveness and the expressiveness of his compositions, where the dramatic effects and the colors enrich a perfect mastery of the choral forces and the orchestra, make them real jewels and the last masterpieces of this type so powerfully French. … Celebrated in their time with multiple interpretations, the two motets Dominus Regnavit and In Exitu Israel are true masterpieces, comparable to the great choral compositions of Bach or Handel.

Bringing together sharp soloists and choristers and musicians from his Ensemble Marguerite Louise, Gaétan Jarry brings to these works his enthusiastic reading and his passion for French music, for a resplendent program, recorded in our discographic collection!
