Regis’s Mass based on the song L’homme armé is one of the very first in a series of L’homme armé works stretching across musical generations – and the only one whose origins are clearly understood. Written for the celebration of the feast of St. Michael at Cambrai Cathedral in 1462, the Mass is a tour de force setting multiple plainchant cantus firmi and featuring Regis’s brilliant and unique sense of sonority.

Antonio Vivaldi’s Gloria is a perennial favorite of audiences and, second only to his Four Seasons, is his best-known work. The liturgical Gloria text was first inspired by the angels’ joyful melody at Christ’s birth. True Concord brings this masterpiece to life with a lively and historically-informed interpretation.

George Frideric Handel may be best known for his Messiah, a monument of Western music, but the exhilarating Dixit Dominus prefigured that work. Inspired by the opera art form, this composition is filled with virtuosic solo melodies, dramatic choral sound and orchestral flourishes.
