Description
The 'fount of grace' of the title is the Virgin Mary, to whom Machaut addresses his appeals for mercy during a turbulent period in France's history.
"I admire their [Orlando Consort] deep commitment to Mauchat's art, which transcends these problems: the words are always delivered with real feeling (try En mon cuer), and one can hardly pass up the chance to hear the three late four-voice motets in close proximity." – Gramophone
GUILLAUME DE MACHAUT Songs from Remede de Fortune CDA68399
'In terms of being ambassadors for this music they do an extraordinary job, and we must say something about the whole package, because the essay, the illustrations, the look and feel of everything - it's so helpful.' (BBC Record Review)
The Florentine Renaissance CDA68349 Works by Binchois, Dufay & Isaac
'A beautiful, intimate performance......delicacy and intimacy are superbly matched to these more introspective works.' (Gramophone)
