The vocal quintet Cinquecento has recorded the music of Jacob Regnart (ca. 1540-1599) in the past, and they return here with a set of exceptionally strong compositions from this contemporary of Lassus, who recommended Regnart for work in the Habsburg empire. This composer is rather neglected, and even those who don't favor Cinquecento's one-voice-per-part approach may wish to check this out. Regnart, like Lassus, was a Fleming who traveled to southern Europe and wrote a variety of music similar to that found in Lassus, including not only sacred music but secular pieces in Italian and German. He was no clone of Lassus, though, and his imagination perhaps flourished especially well in the mass, not a specialty of Lassus. The two masses on the program here, with some lovely motets as an intermezzo, are both based on monophonic German hymns. They seem not especially well suited to polyphonic treatment, but Regnart manages to weave them into his texture in multiple ways, often quite cleverly. The tunes are by turns presented whole and broken up. The highlight is the Missa Freu dich, di werthe Christenheit, at the end. Here, Regnart combines his motivic skill with really striking treatments of mode, setting tonal centers in contrast with one another and constructing an unusually powerful progression through the mass as a whole. This is as fine as anything Lassus ever wrote, and Cinquecento has done a service in bringing the music to greater exposure.
