Review by sharoncitara pramesti

Hilliard Live 4, the latest album by Guillaume Dufay and The Hilliard Ensemble, is a stunning display of vocal prowess and musical artistry. The album features live recordings of performances by the acclaimed ensemble, showcasing their mastery of Dufay's intricate and emotive compositions.

From the opening track "Ave Regina caelorum" to the closing "Nuper rosarum flores," Hilliard Live 4 is a captivating journey through Dufay's rich and varied oeuvre. The ensemble's flawless vocal harmonies and precise phrasing bring each piece to life, capturing the essence of Dufay's music with remarkable sensitivity and depth.

One standout track is "Lamentatio sanctae matris ecclesiae Constantinopolitanae," a hauntingly beautiful lament for the fall of Constantinople. The Hilliard Ensemble's performance is both powerful and poignant, conveying the deep sense of loss and grief inherent in the piece with remarkable clarity.

About Guillaume Dufay The Hilliard Ensemble

French composer and music theorist of the late Middle Ages / Early Renaissance (born c. 1400, Cambrai (or maybe Bersele or Chimay), France - died November 27, 1474, Cambrai, France). Central figure in the Burgundian School. The life and music of Guillaume Dufay are among the most difficult to circumscribe for major Renaissance composers. One point of clarity is that Dufay was considered by far the leading composer of his day, a musician of almost unparalleled eminence, and one of the most famous men of his generation. Dufay's large and varied musical output, its extent only now coming into focus in some cases, acted to define the new musical style of the early-to-mid-fifteenth century and with it the course of Western music into the High Renaissance. Dufay's influence over musical composition was complete and permanent, affecting every genre and sphere. The singularity of his eminence can best be compared to that of or perhaps , but in fact Dufay had the broader contemporary reputation.
