Esprit-Joseph-Antoine Blanchard, a contemporary of Jean-Philippe Rameau, is regarded as a representative composer of religious music in eighteenth-century France. This book focuses on the eleven grands motets selected by Marc-François Bêche, a highly esteemed singer of the Chapelle Royale, who had firsthand experience of Blanchard's music performed during the king's mass at Versailles. The author provides a comprehensive examination of Blanchard's finest motets by exploring concepts and ideas that are appropriate in illuminating the composer's musical style. He also discusses in detail various issues pertinent to the liturgical context and performance of this repertoire.

The Author: Tai Wai Li received his D.M.A. in Choral Conducting from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and his M.Mus. in Instrumental Conducting from the University of Washington. He is a native of Hong Kong and a graduate of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
