“This disc opens with a Latin Protestant contrafactum to Pierre de la Rue’s famous five-part chanson Incessament mon povre cueur lamente and concludes with the chanson itself, between which it provides a liturgical setting of his masterly Mass based on the chanson...the powerfully sonorous setting is given a spectacular performance here by Amarcord…whose experience in a wide range of musical spheres has brought great richness to their singing of the repertoire of the early 16th century. The acoustic of the Stiftskirche Wechselburg enhances the low sonorities of La Rue’s chosen ensemble, as well as helping greatly with some lovely plainchant singing.” DJ Ross, Early Music Review
