About this concert

The Messe de Tournai stands at the heart of our Day of Hours. This anonymous fourteenth-century three-part Mass is one of the earliest polyphonic settings of the immutable parts of the Mass: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus Dei and Ite missa est. In addition to traditional musical lines, this Mass contains contemporary and even progressive elements.

About the performers

The ensemble Psallentes was founded in 2000 by singer and conductor Hendrik Vanden Abeele. The ensemble seeks out plainchant and associated polyphony from various historical periods. Particular attention is paid to plainchant of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. Insights into this are fostered by practice-based research by Vanden Abeele. Since 2007 Psallentes has been operating in male-only and female-only line-ups.
