The Choir of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, under the direction of David Skinner, unveils a luminous collection of works by Jacquet of Mantua (1483-1559), a master of Renaissance polyphony. This album features a carefully curated selection of motets and his rare secular songs, showcasing Jacquet's exquisite blend of Franco-Flemish craftsmanship and Italianate lyricism. From the radiant Ave maris stella to the spirited drinking song Canamus et bibamus, these performances reveal the richness and vitality of Jacquet's music. Rarely recorded and steeped in Counter-Reformation fervour, this album offers an intimate journey into the heart of Renaissance musical expression.
