Immerse yourself in the timeless elegance of Baroque music with Jean-Joseph Cassanéa de Mondonville's "De profundis & Venite exultemus." Released in 1988 by Hyperion, this chamber music album is a testament to the composer's virtuosity and the exquisite artistry of the London Baroque ensemble. Spanning a little over an hour, the album features 19 tracks that showcase Mondonville's mastery of the genre, with intricate compositions that blend depth and devotion.
The album is divided into two main sections: "Venite, exsultemus" and "De profundis." The former is a jubilant call to worship, featuring a series of movements that build in intensity and grandeur. The latter is a profound and introspective setting of the penitential psalm, showcasing the composer's ability to convey deep emotion through music.
Mondonville, a contemporary of Jean-Philippe Rameau, was a renowned violinist and composer in his time, and this album is a wonderful introduction to his work. The performances by the London Baroque, conducted by Edward Higginbottom, are nothing short of stellar, with each track meticulously crafted and beautifully executed. Whether you're a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to captivate and inspire.
