Te Deum ( Prelude ) - Marc-Antoine Charpentier.





Today's Classical Corner... Charpentier's grand prelude to Te Deum!

Charpentier composed 6 Te Deum settings, although only 4 of them survived. It is thought that the composition was performed to mark the victory celebrations and the Battle of Steinkirk in August, 1692.
