Description
Music for the Last Judgement by Rogier van der Weyden
In 1443, the chancellor Nicolas Rolin commissioned the greatest painter of his time to paint a Last Judgement, a sublime object of penance for the sick in the Salle des Pôvres. Just before the altarpiece in Beaune was to undergo a fundamental restoration, the young English singers of Fount & Origin imagined the music, between heaven and hell, between the sword and the lily.
