Jean Guyot was another of the composers of the post-Josquin generation active in the Low Countries in the mid-sixteenth century. (He was also a priest, author and teacher, although the details of much of his life remain vague.) Cinquecento has previously explored his secular music (on 'Amorosi pensieri - CDA68053), but it was Guyot's sacred music which was largely responsible for the high reputation he seemingly
enjoyed in his lifetime. Cinquecento proves equally authoritative in both.
"Guyot emerges from this disc as a marvellously fluent composer, perhaps a touch unvaried in texture but always pleasing…the five adult men of Cinquecento - here joined by the countertenor David Allsopp - are, as always, absolutely flawless in the performance of this music. Even by the best standards of today their ensemble, balance and intonation are beyond reproach" Gramophone Award Nomination 2017 - Early Music
