Album Notes & Community Reviews

Issued as HL 1001 and recorded the same year, the twelve tracks are built around P茅rotin's two great organa, 'Viderunt Omnes' and 'Sederunt Principes', the latter running just over seventeen minutes. The program surveys the Ars Antiqua repertory of Notre Dame, sung by the ensemble's unaccompanied voices.
