This recording, made at Noirlac Abbey in January 2025, is dedicated to Denis Raisin Dadre, who passed away suddenly on September 29 of the same year. With Doulce M�moire, the ensemble he founded in 1989 and with which he brought Renaissance music to the world, Denis directed the production of this album from start to finish. In the booklet, he writes: "The Lagrime di San Pietro and Lagrime del peccatore both deal with a subject rarely encountered in musical settings: Peter's denial of Jesus. Furthermore, each is the swan song of it's composer. Munich, 1594. In the last year of his life, Orlando di Lasso composed his masterpiece, the apogee of Renaissance counterpoint and musical eloquence. Ferrara, 1586. Lodovico Agostini published his final work, whose language sought above all to move and overwhelm the listener by using all the already baroque devices of chromaticism and dissonance."
