Pierre de la Rue: Mijn hert altijt heeft verlanghen

Pierre de La Rue was a composer in the Flemish style that dominated Renaissance music, known for his religious music.
La Rue worked in Brussels from 1492, where he served Philip the Handsome and from 1508, Margaret of Austria, regent of the Netherlands; with them he visited France and Spain. In 1516 he became canon at Courtrai. La Rue left more than 30 masses and about 45 motets, distinguished by their densely compressed style and skillful structure. His 32 surviving secular pieces include vocal part-songs and instrumentally accompanied solos.

By the way? who sing this? it sounds different from my recording made by Capilla flamenca.

Dit is wel degelijk Cappilla Flamenca ;-)

One of the oldest songs in the Dutch language.

[micrologus2]

There are a lot of songs in the Middle Netherlandish language that are older than this one ;-)

@micrologus2 I love the music book published by Agricola (?) where it says (I mention this by memory) "de eerste buik gedruikt in onsere nederlandse duitse tal"

My heart has always longed

For you, my dearest.

Your love has received me,

I want to be your own.

Before the whole world,

Whoever can see or hear,

My heart is yours alone.

Therefore, love, do not leave me.
