About
The greatest name of the fifth generation of Franco-Flemish composers is Roland de Lassus. He translated his name into Italian as Orlando di Lasso as soon as he achieved international fame, which came very early. This is the first in a set of five recordings, celebrating the most illustrious composer of the second half of the sixteenth century.
