About

These ‘petites’ compositions of sacred music for several soloists and a small instrumental ensemble are in a certain sense the pendants to the grands motets of Versailles: Lully's successor excelled in both forms.

At the close of the ‘Grand Siècle’, De Lalande asserted himself as one of the truly great figures in French Baroque music.
