Vox makes
history by becoming the first modern ensemble in the world to
record the Requiem by Pierre de la Rue, unaccompanied, and at its
written pitch. This work is set at such an extraordinarily low
range that many scholars have called it "unperformable".
In addition to shattering this misconception, the recording will involve
other examples of "extreme singing" from the Renaissance,
include a work featuring the lowest note ever written in Renaissance
music!
