Missa Ave maris stella : celebrating the annunciation in renaissance Rome

"Among the distinctive details here are that it is performed at probably the lowest possible pitch ... The textures in general are exceptionally clear and, partly as a result of that pitch, the lines are beautifully relaxed ... Another special delight here is the inclusion of the Proper chants for the Mass ... As a serious eccentricity, the polyphony is sung with a French pronunciation of the Latin, but some of the priest sections are sung with Italian pronunciation ... Sounds a lot better than most priests I have heard, but this is taking historical style to a new extreme".
