Unlike some "greatest-hits" samplers, this well-chosen selection can serve a purpose for even some fairly advanced music lovers who still don't know this period well. Annotator David Fallows ties things together with perceptive commentary, and the performances chosen (most of them from stylistically enlightened recordings) are all quite fine. The uncredited programmer hasn't hesitated to emphasize great names (Dufay and Josquin Des Prez) or to include stylistically weird material (Solage's incredibly dissonant Fumeux fume). Only a few minutes after Solage, we get the gorgeous euphony of Tallis' Spem in alium! It's a pity that no texts are included, or that there isn't any bouncy dance music, but this is still a fine single-disc introduction to the period. The timing is about as long as possible. --Leslie Gerber

A good starting point for anyone interested in music of the 15th and 16th centuries.......2007-05-15

"The Renaissance In Music" is aptly named. It's not intended as a "best of," but rather an examination of major composers, trends, and genres that marked the Renaissance, here characterized as an era (1400 to 1600) in which vocal counterpoint reached new heights in elegance and sophistication. The cover picture of sunlight shining into a dark room is an evocative metaphor for the Renaissance itself, and for the CD's own effort to shine some light on long-darkened corners of music history.

The compilation establishes a strong focus on the 15th century by beginning with the works of Guillaume Dufay (1397-1474). Dufay excelled in both sacred and secular vocal compositions, as illustrated here by three Mass movements and the lovely chanson "Se la face ay pale."

Pioneer of pervasive imitation Josquin Desprez (c. 1450-1521) is well represented with 20 minutes of music, the highlight being a stirring rendition of the virtuoso motet "Miserere mei, Deus" (not to be confused with the early 17th century Allegri work).

Selections from the High Renaissance dispense with the usual suspects; notable omissions include Byrd, Lassus, Willaert & Palestrina. We hear a madrigal by Verdelot, a Marian antiphon by Gombert, and perhaps best of all, Thomas Tallis' magnificent 40-voice motet "Spem in alium."

Instrumental pieces get rather short shrift, with only "Agincourt Carol" and a fantasia by Mudarra (c. 1510-1585) providing contrast to the stream of polyphony that dominates the CD.

Some selections may induce head-scratching; for example, Solage's "Fumeux et fume." This bizarre, chromatic work represented the late Medieval "ars subtilior" style, an experimental movement that faded before the Renaissance began in earnest. A better selection from the transitional period from late Medieval to early Renaissance is Perugia's "Helas Avril," a three-part virelai which foreshadows Dufay's polyphony.

Prominent Dufay scholar David Fallows provides insightful liner notes. The performances (which prominently feature the Huelgas Ensemble under the direction of Paul Van Nevel) are selected from a wide time frame (1965 to 1996), but fine mastering and clever sequencing makes the compilation flow nicely.

"The Renaissance in Music," despite some notable omissions and curious inclusions, serves as a good starting point for anyone interested in music of the 15th and 16th centuries. The compilation's tantalizing selection should whet one's appetite for more music of the era.

Renaissance in Peace.......2000-08-06

I enjoyed this album of music from the Renaissance. Overall, it is a peaceful and comforting set of music. I found it something to listen to while I was reading or studying. This collection is diverse. It features works for voice both accompanied and cappela arrangements. There are also instrumental works for organ, as well as for lute. The liner notes are clear and informative. From them, I learned that Renassaince Music obtains its distinctive sound from gently flowing melodies, unpredictable phrase structures and an indirect approach to a tonal centre. These attributes made the music strange and yet captivating to me. If you are interested in music of the Renassaince Period or simply enjoy peaceful music performed well, this album will be interesting to you.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!.......2007-03-02

Two disk set. One is a CD, the other a DVD. (Note: the DVD is a Zone 2 DVD & you may only be able to see it in B & W on your set, although when I played it in my Mac I got to view it in color. But no matter, color or B & W, it's still a real joy to witness.) Both (CD, which is a region 1 CD, & DVD) are terrific. Lady sings in Spanish, French and English.
Am addicted to Jeane Manson & will be buying more of her music. You'll fall in love with her voice, natural grace and stage presence.

I cannot believe that I havent' even heard of her until about two months ago. Makes no difference what your age is, you'll enjoy this great performer's music.
Woman was born in Ohio, raised in Mexico and has lived in France for about three decades now.
All I can is WOW!

Brel live - powerful and challenging.......2003-10-10

Though this is not my favourite live recording of Jacques Brel, it's still worth listening. He starts with 'Amsterdam' - and there really isn't a more powerful recording in the world. I've listened to many sorts of music and though heavy metal can drown you, Brel singing 'Amsterdam' with just a few acoustic instruments, his voice raising towards the end, leaves me completely breathless every time, even after hundreds of times. There still isn't a voice as full of life and energy as his was. Six pieds sous terre tu chantes encore, Jacky.

Other highlights on the record are Les toros (not hard to understand after hearing it, that four years later he played Don Quijote. The elements are here, though he still had no idea of what was ahead) and Tango funebre. He really could say wicked things about people, and the worst thing is: they are usually true... On the whole this is a wicked record: he laughs at Flamandes, unlucky suitors, bourgeois... And he wouldn't have been Brel if he hadn't laughed at himself a bit, too, and still managed to look at people with deep understanding and even compassion. The most beautiful of his songs are missing here, you can find them on the live recording '61, but one Mathilde is back in town - and there's enough passion for the whole record.

This isn't the easiest Brel but perhaps Brel being most Brel - if you get my meaning. And live on stage he was the performer of the century.

Simply the best entertainer.......2002-01-17

Jacques Brel. He transcended the stage and popular music of the time. His words are biting, acerbic, funny and most of all, introspective. No one could convey emotion like this man.

Words. I know people who hated listening to Brel because as they said, you couldn't help but think about things after listening to them.

Jeff Harmon

Brel en Public Olympia 1964.......2001-08-29

The joy of the audience and the power of Brel's voice combine to create a sense of being in the theatre while Jaques Brel performs the songs on this album/cd. The pain of "Amsterdam", the pathos of "Les Timides", the irony and satire of "Les Toros" and "Les Bourgeois" are all made more powerful by the desire and love given to Brel by the audience; and Brel responds. If you have only listened to Brel's studio productions then you have not listened to the Jaques Brel that grew to international fame as an observer of humanity, its foibles and its greatness. In this performance you truly come to understand why Jaques Brel may be considered one of the finest writer/performers of the 20th century.
