Notes & Reviews:

"This collection features a variety of works, including songs, a cantata, and a short opera-like scene in the form of a motet, Epithalium Carpenterij, that's quite unlike anything else in the musical repertoire. It's a wickedly funny tombeau, or musical memorial tribute, which Charpentier writes in his own honor... The variety and depth of Charpentier's imagination and the quality of the performances make this a disc that should be of interest to listeners who enjoy the discovery of obscure but rich musical treasures from the past." -All Music Guide
