Flore & Pan |
Flore; Pan |
Chantons sa valeur immortelle. |
Let us sing his immortal valour. |
Publions ses faits glorieux; |
Let us declare his glorious deeds; |
Que sa gloire soit éternelle |
May his glory be eternal |
Qu’elle dure autant que les Dieux. |
May it last as long as the Gods. |
Veronika Anissimova |
“Jacquet de La Guerre’s original score was most likely written in five parts, after the tradition established by Lully. As only Ballard’s partition reduite survives, however, only the upper two instrumental parts and the basse continue are extant.” IMSLP
