Early Music with The Trinity Choir and the REBEL Baroque Orchestra: Grand Motets May 20, 2008

Trinity Wall Street proudly presents Early Music with The Trinity Choir and the REBEL Baroque Orchestra. On May 20th at 7:30 PM, they will perform Grand Motets: Jean-Baptiste Lully, Michel-Richard de Lalande, Marc-Antoine Charpentier, Henry Demarest, Jean-Philippe Rameau, Jean-Joseph Cassanea de Mondonville.

Some of the most noble and sumptuously beautiful, heroic, and yet sensual music ever composed in France was in the form known as the Grand Motet—a French genre developed at the beginning of the reign of Louis XIV which lasted until the end of the Ancien Régime. It was the main ornament of the king’s Mass from Louis XIV up to Louis XVI, allowing a sort of dialogue between musicians, composers, courtiers and their king.
