Editor's info:
Each year from 1684 to 1686, Marc-Antoine Charpentier offered a Christmas pastorale to his patron, Marie de Lorraine. After the death of the boy Louis-Joseph, the last male heir of the line, the figure of the Christ-Child occupied a central place in the devotions of the Guise family. The pastorales and antiphons written in this context and recorded here are at the intersection of the sacred and secular genres, of the popular and the learned. They evoke the mystery of birth with a profoundly moving blend of naïveté and gravity.



Sunday Times, 18th December 2016
... This is state-of-the-art Charpentier, following traditions established by William Christie’s Les Arts Florissants. The “O” Antiphons for Advent — short, intense consort pieces proclaiming the coming of Christ — make an ideal coupling for those who fancy celebrating “Noël” in 2016...


Record Review 24th December 2016
... performed with colour and care, transparently recorded as well … definitely one of my favourite new Christmas recordings this year...
