About "Victoria: Liber primus: No. 26, Regina caeli laetare a 8" by Chanticleer
Victoria's eight-voice motet blooms like a rose window shattered into sound: bright, geometric, ecstatic. The 'Queen of Heaven' is greeted with overlapping alleluias that feel less like prayer than architectural triumph. Joy here is structural, built from interlocking lines of Renaissance counterpoint.
