Description:

Lully: Benedictus by Les Epopees, released 22 September 2023. This version of Lully: Benedictus comes as a 1xCD. -

Here; four exceptional Grands Motets composed by Lully to the greatest glory of Louis XIV have been brought together: Plaude Laetare Gallia was performed in 1668 as a jubilant celebration of the birth of his first son; the Grand Dauphin; Benedictus is a piece of extraordinary architecture that transcends the sacred drama; Notus in Judea Deus; composed in 1685 shortly before Lully's death; is a true victory song celebrating the glory of God; finally; Domine Salvum fac Regem; an energetic "God save the King"; was systematically sung in honour of the sovereign. The sublime Magnificat by Henry Du Mont; who was in charge of the Music of the King's Chapel until 1683; adds yet more splendour. Stéphane Fuget has brought together the best performers; a veritable "army of generals" with a vast choir composed of exceptional singers; to bring these legendary pieces back to life amid the magnificence of Versailles.
