Vocal ensemble Capella Cracoviensis and musical ensemble Capriccio Stravagante, both led by harpsichordist and conductor Skip Sempé, perform the program ‘Adieu, monsieur Rameau’ during the Utrecht Early Music Festival 2018. The program consists of an arrangement of the famous French requiem ‘Messe des morts’ by Jean Gilles. The arrangement, most probably done by François Rebel and François Francoeur, was made for Rameau’s memorial service. Rebel and Francoeur updated the mass by changing the instrumentation and adding movements and references.

♫ Gilles - Messe des morts (Parisian version, 1764) - Introit and Kyrie
♫ Gilles - Hommage à Rameau: Gravement (from Dardanus) - Graduel I, Graduel II, Offertoire and Sanctus

♫ Gilles - Sommeil éternel de Rameau: Rondeau tendre (from Dardanus)

Waking up listeners - Capriccio Stravagante is world-renowned for their memorable interpretations of Renaissance and Baroque music. Founded in 1986 by Skip Sempé, the ensemble of three to seventy performers incorporates Capriccio Stravagante, the Capriccio Stravagante Renaissance Orchestra and Capriccio Stravagante Les 24 Violons. By the mid 1990s, the ensemble had built up an extensive discography for which they received international acclaim and had performed in major concert halls and festivals worldwide. Nonchalance & Power - The ensembles seek a musical aesthetic whose values have been nearly lost to contemporary musical life. Unlike many other early music ensembles, they adhere to traditional principles of articulation, rhetoric, scholarship, imagination and talent to break down conventions that have little to do with historical practice, particularly those originating in twentieth-century ‘Baroque’ performance practices. Capriccio Stravagante has recorded extensively for the Paradizo, Deutsche Harmonia Mundi, Astrée, Alpha and Teldec labels. Man-made beauty - The Capriccio Stravagante Renaissance Orchestra offers virtuoso performers on a highly distinctive musical instrumentarium that includes violins, viols, recorders, cornetti, sackbuts, krummhorns, shawms, lutes, harps, harpsichords, virginals, organs, and percussion. Derived from the instrumental virtuosity that sixteenth-century music demanded, their playing techniques are completely unknown to classically trained instrumentalists and mainstream audiences today. The ensemble is the largest and most luxurious gathering yet assembled for the performance of masterpieces from this Golden Age of musical creativity. Awards & Rewards - Capriccio Stravagante’s exceptional chamber ensemble playing has inspired three generations of musicians, many of whom have gone on to enjoy international careers. The Capriccio Stravagante Prize was created by Skip Sempé in 1997, and served to encourage numerous musicians in their early careers. It is particularly touching that many of those musicians have now become an integral part of Capriccio Stravagante’s activities. Sempé receives lasting inspiration from the key members of these renewed generations.

JEAN GILLES { TARASCON 1668~1705 TOULOUSE } « JEAN GILLES : MESSE DES MORTS - CAPELLA CRACOVIENSIS AND CAPRICCIO STRAVAGANTE - EARLY MUSIC FESTIVAL « Que c’est beau, magnifique interprétation voix vocale et musique instrumentale de LA CAPELLA CRACOVIENSIS , cette ensemble de musique symphonique et chœur mixte polonais de Cracovie formée en 1970, par le compositeur, musicologue et chef d’orchestre STANISLAW GALONSKI, spécialisée dans la musique ancienne jouée sur instruments d’époque. Et le CAPRICCIO STRAVAGANTE ensemble de musique Baroque fondé en 1986 par SKIP SEMPE, ensemble français de musique de chambre dédié au répertoire instrumental des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècle qui acquiert aussitôt une renommée internationale, bravo à ses deux ensemble. Quelle chef-d’œuvre le « REQUIEM de JEAN GILLES « , c’est par ce titre que le mélodrame fait presque toujours la connaissance de ce compositeur méridional emblématique du Baroque musical français. En effet, la réputation de cette MESSE DES MORTS, nourrie autant par une belle légende que par une qualité artistique exceptionnelle, aura attribué à son auteur une gloire posthume toujours vivace. Merci pour ce grand moment de musique Baroque grandiose, avec ce grand compositeur du XVIIe siècle JEAN GILLES, et ses deux grands ensembles magnifiques CAPELLA CRACOVIENSIS et CAPRICCIO STRAVAGANTE, que j’ai énormément apprécié bravo à tous.

The entire performance bespeaks richness and quality. Notice that the great Skip Sempe does not throw himself around in a look-at-me style so beloved of some other conductors and he also knows when to simply stand motionless and allow the music to flow from the professional musicians! Most enlightening!

Disait-on "requiem" ou "requouiem" au xviii en France ? J'ai déjà entendu une version qui se voulait "authentique " où c'était requiem cela m'avait surpris.

Interesting to hear this version made more than 50 years after Gilles composed this excellent requiem. It shows that the original work was way better. The horns and drums give it a kitsch feel that it surely doesn't need.

"The horns and drums give it a kitsch feel that it surely doesn't need." What a pity, you couldn't say it the master Ms. Rameau - he himself added the horns into his second version of CASTOR ET POLLUXE ("Tristes apprets") and so you've more a feeling for good music then Ms. Rameau with his kitsch feeling...: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pqihf9Rnmdm1ZWw.html&

The original is unfortunately lost, all interpretation of the Requiem tries to rebuild the authencity of the Gilles intentions (except this one, I think Rebel and Francoeur wanted to fit Rameau's rich orchestration in order to avoid to have too much difference between the Requiem and the Castor et Pollux extracts, I'm loving it because Skip Sempé assumes to bring it over the top. But isn't it a tribute to Rameau after all?). Apparently, there were 200 musicians for Rameau's funeral, I can't imagine how it sounded.

Hartelijk dank wederom AVRO/TROS vor deze opname om nog even na te genieten. Dank aan Skip Sempe dat hij de (blok)fluiten aan de andere kant van het orkest achter de violen had gezet. Briljant als je rechts voor het podium zit want ze waren hard zat. Hulde voor de uitvoering en de registratie.

Par contre le Latin prononcé à l'italienne sur Séjour de l'éternel paix est au delà de la faute de goût, un vrai sacrilège. La musette des Fêtes d'Hébé en introduction ❤️ La plus belle de Rameau

Very beautiful, and one of the greatest values of this performance is the good pronunciation of latin, instead of the horrible french pronunciation.

Oh how I miss the characteristic extra measure in the Introitus! It creates such a sense of longing, Inne-Halten, … e.g. @11:36 How dare they slash it? What a shame… it sounds rushed to me. Still a great performance of course! :)

@manuelalmendarez2232 3 жыл бұрын

I think he lived way before rameau.he was born in 1668 and rameau in 1683.so thats 15years older than rameau.

No, it is complicated. It is some kind of a meddley including the original Requiem from Jean Gilles and many extracts from Rameau's opera, works from Michel Corrette and even Italian music. It's very fun for a requiem
