The Treasures of Claude Le Jeune

Our favourite polyphony ensemble.
More than 40 years of consistent quality, with a lot of premiere recordings.
Van Nevel is always researching forgotten treasures.

I'm in the mood for some fine baroque.

We've seen this ensemble a couple of times.
Very good musicians.
