François Couperin - Couperin: Leçons De Ténèbres/...

Some of the most atmospheric music from the numerous Liturgical settings in Holy Week is that composed for the Office of Tenebrae. Victoria's are the most well-known but equally beautiful and arguably more dramatic are the settings composed by Gesualdo and Couperin. The Gesualdo is intense with the Couperin atmospheric, yet both complement each other perfectly on another world-class recording from Tenebrae.
