The three grands motets, Quam dilecta, In convertendo and Deus noster refugium, which Jean-Philippe Rameau composed from 1713 to 1715 are still relatively unknown today. Being performed in a "concert spirituel" in 1751, In Convertendo was poorly received; this failure long continued to pursue Rameau. Yet these masterworks are testimony to Rameau’s great contrapuntal mastery and contain beautiful lyrical passages. Quam dilecta and Deus noster refugium have survived only in later sources which originated in about 1770, after Rameau’s death, and the works have been rendered in a scoring which does not correspond to his intentions. The present new edition attempts for thefirst time to reconstruct them as closely as possible to their original form. The edition of In convertendo is based on Rameau’s autograph score from 1751.
