description
The Te Deum is Lully's best-known sacred work, first performed at Fontainebleau on 9th September, 1677. It was while directing 150 musicians in another performance of the piece on 8th January, 1687 that Lully inflicted on himself the wound which, turning gangrenous, was to prove fatal. The origins of the Te Deum were quite different to those of the other works on this recording. Lully was at the pinnacle of his career, the immensely successful composer of lyric tragedies like Atys and Isis. The Te Deum calls for high pomp and considerable resources. Contemporary reports speak of the large forces (as many as 300 musicians, including chorus, orchestra, trumpets and drums) assembled to perform the work, even at the beginning of the eighteenth century. The success of the Te Deum is almost unique in the history of seventeenth century sacred music.
