Charpentier: Messe de Minuit - In Nativitatem Domini (Ensemble Correspondances) (CD)

Marc-Antoine Charpentier was the French composer of the Grand Siècle who left the largest number of works specifically related to Christmas.

Here, going beyond the famous Messe de Minuit, listeners will be all the more enchanted by his histoires sacrées (brief oratorios) and Noëls pour les instruments when they are presented by the composer’s most fervent advocates.
