Lobo, Traditional: Missa Simile Est Regnum Caelorum - Kyrie

Both are parody masses: the Missa Simile est regnum caelorum is based on the four-voice motet by Guerrero, while the Missa O rex gloriae draws on a Palestrina motet. It is particularly good to have these two fine mass settings on disc, and in such committed well-shaped performances, to serve as a foil to the intense, [End Page ] highly dissonant and dark-hued writing of Versa est in luctum : as David Trendell writes in the liner notes, this music for the mass is 'joyously assertive', which is not to say that there is no sign of Lobo's characteristic use of dissonance, and the canonic writing in the concluding Agnus Dei of each mass confirms his compositional skill.

The youthful enthusiasm of the Choir of King's College, London, is much apparent throughout, and occasionally results in a slightly short-breathed, pushed feel, though they can also sing in a more sustained way, as passages such as the 'Et incarnatus' and 'Crucifixus' of the Credo show, even if these could be still more intense, more focused.

If the 'Osanna' of the Sanctus of the Missa Simile est regnum caelorum seems over-emphatic-it is possible to be too assertively joyous-the expressivity they bring to the Agnus Dei more than compensates, and also leads well into the setting of the Lamentations attributed to Lobo in an 18th-century manuscript.

About this release

As Trendell notes, there is little reason to doubt the authenticity of the attribution on stylistic grounds: this is the composer of Versa est in luctum writ large. These penitential texts seem to draw settings of unparallelled expressivity from Spanish composers, Holy Week being one of the most important points of the liturgical year for polyphonic performance in Spanish cathedrals throughout the period.

Missa Simile est Regnum Coelorum

These motets, settings of Marian antiphons, show the composer at his most lyrical, extrovert almost. Yet these performances have a dignity and restraint that only adds to the vocal and textual impact no matter how dense the polyphonic line… as towards the end of the sumptuous Regina coeli [tr. Every word is clear and full of intention thanks to the clarity of articulation by the 20 or so members of the Church of the Advent Choir.

Alonso Lobo - missa simile est regnum caelorum

If Guerrero's design was supplication, it was supplication, Ho and her singers have it, from someone who knows they deserve a positive response! Even more full of vitality is the Missa de la batalla escoutez , which probably predates the Missa Simile est regnum coelorum.

It is in no way rough-edged or immature, though, such is the integrity of these performers that they would have made no attempt to add to the music with an edge that it might not have possessed. Yet they seem particularly adept at finding the positive, the uplifting and the commendable in this music.

The acoustic is rounded and warm, though never threatens to overpower the singing, which is clean and dignified throughout, though without any taint of the "triumphant". There is a short and informative booklet with the texts in latin and English. This is repertoire that seems impossible not to delight in. Though it does need a sensitive and knowledgeable approach to seem its best.
