XLIV. OBRECHT, Jacob: Salve crux, arbor vitae

XLIV. OBRECHT, Jacob (1457-1505)

Salve crux, arbor vitae (15th c.)

Two versions

1. (motet for voices)
Pro Cantione Antiqua
Bruno Turner, cond.
(12:24)


2. Arrangement for recorder ensemble
Sarah Jeffrey, Anna Stegmann, Yi-Chang Liang, Kyuri Kim, Lyida Arnold, Dodó Kis, renaissance recorders
(6:49)

From around the same time as the more famous Josquin, but equally talented at composing sublime, beautifully-voiced motets and masses, like this one.

The second video is a shorter arrangement for recorder ensemble -- including both a contrabass and subcontrabass recorder!
