"Requiem Mass for Josquin des Prez": A stunning recording from Swiss Radio from the summer 2001 concerts in the Cloister Church in Muri of the very rare Jean Richafort Requiem, featuring the Huelgas Ensemble directed by Paul van Nevel.

Preservation of this program is made possible by a generous grant in honor of Heather Rowell Everlof.

NOTE: All of the music on this program was recorded at the Cloister Church in Muri on 17 June, 2001 by DRS.

These performances feature the Huelgas Ensemble directed by Paul van Nevel.

Support for these programs comes in part from PRS, Presence Switzerland; with additional support from Swiss Radio, Pro Helvetia, and the Embassy of Switzerland in Washington, D.C.
