More info
The anonymous melody L homme arme was widely used in 15th and 16th century Europe and served composers as structural and melodic inspiration for their masses. The reason for its enduring popularity is not really known, but the catchy melody and the atmospheric, martial theme were clearly appreciated by composers from Dufay to Carissimi. The English vocal ensemble De Profundis continues its Morales project with two very different but equally excellent masses on this melody, alongside the spectacular Magnificat secundi toni.
