Le Jeune’s distinctive contribution to the French chanson marks him out as one of the genre’s essential figures. He is best known for having given musical voice to the concept of the vers mesure a l’antique. The pioneer of this poetic style, Antoine du Baif, sought to return to the simplicity of Greek verse with its clear rules of scansion. The Protestant Le Jeune responded with polyphonic settings in which melismas are abolished in favour of long or short notes of constant duration, corresponding to the strong/weak accentual patterns of the words. In his hands this seemingly daunting restriction is remarkably flexible, and other composers experimented with it, if only briefly (as in Lassus’s lovely Une puce).
In this selection of songs, Van Nevel combines voices and instruments perhaps more felicitously than in the past, and his experiments with a ‘layered’ presentation of the voices over several strophes (also featured on the album devoted to Pipelare, see page 96) works particularly well, since the polyphonic component in these songs has been reduced to a minimum. Personally, I find that a whole hour of vers mesure can be a bit daunting, but the Huelgas Ensemble sound so fresh and beguiling that switching off is never an option. And as always with Paul Van Nevel, the extensive accompanying essay offers a sympathetic and informed way into an influential and under-recorded strand of the chanson.'–Fabrice Fitch
