About This Song
About "Lassus: Quatriesme livre des chansons: No. 4, Quand mon mary vient de dehors" by The King's Singers
A wife's complaint becomes a polyphonic farce: when the husband returns, the lover must vanish. Lassus writes the scramble in overlapping lines, and The King's Singers play it with razor timing. The tension is comic and breathlessâdomestic chaos rendered in impeccable Renaissance counterpoint, each cadence a slammed door.
