Northwest Focus features Machaut: Messe de Nostre Dame

In the lead-up to our Machaut: Messe de Nostre Dame series, Seattle’s KING FM will be previewing the performance with Cappella Romana recordings on the Northwest Focus program! See the schedule:

Following his Cappella Romana début in 2012 leading powerful chants from Santiago de Compostela, international early music star Marcel Pérès from Paris directs the earliest known Mass setting by a single composer, Guillaume de Machaut (1300-1377), with chants for Candlemas.
