Absalon Fili Mi, most likely composed by Pierre La Rue in 1506.
Pierre La Rue (d.1518) spent decades of his professional life writing for the chapel of the Habsburg-Burgundian court. The singers here is said to have been phenomenal. The bass descends to Bb1 at the end, impressingly handled by Glenn Miller.
This is the first time in history this piece has been recorded at its written pitch.
GET THE ALBUM. It is absolutely marvellous.
