If you love the sublime sacred music of Guillaume Dufay, do not deny yourself the joys of this disc. Performed by the eight-voice Diabolus in Musica under the direction of Antoine Guerber, the disc features Dufay's masterful Missa se la face ay pale interwoven with the four musical movements of the Proper of the Mass for Trinity Sunday, thereby giving this gem of the late Medieval period its proper context. With the utmost clarity, the purest intensity, and the greatest expressivity, the delightfully inappropriately named Diabolus in Musica choir weaves Dufay's ecstatically flowing counterpoint into radiant tapestries of spiritualized sound. Separated by the austere monophonic settings of the Proper and ending with a consciousness expanding Ite missa est, the musical genius of Dufay's Missa se la face ay pale glows even more luminously. Recorded in translucent digital sound by Alpha Productions, this disc belongs on every late medieval shelf. ~ James Leonard, Rovi
