De Lalande was one of the four composers assigned to Louis XIV's Chapel. The disc gives us the opportunity to hear two of the 'grands motets' in full (substantial, sectional works in which episodes for vocal soloists are interspersed with passages for small ensembles and chorus, the orchestra providing both accompaniment and interludes), as well as a solo movement extracted from another one, and one of his instrumental pieces.
