Here we present the programme on our new album, showcasing Fabrice Fitch’s reconstruction of Obrecht’s superb Missa Scaramella, only two of whose four voices (in partbooks) survive today. The achievement is sensational, and a fabulous tribute to our long-time collaborator Philip Weller, who began the project and who sadly passed away before it could be completed.
Added to the Mass are two further pieces completed by Philip: Brumel’s Philippe qui videt me, and the stunning Mater Patris by Obrecht. Fabrice’s own Planctus, written in memory of our dear friend. plus a motet by Agricola and the two surviving songs on Scaramella, round off the recital.
