«Missa Pro Defunctis / Missa de Batalla» is the album by Joan Cererols with La Capella Reial de Catalunya and Jordi Savall, released in 2000 by Naïve on CD.
The recording brings together two masses by Catalan composer Joan Cererols performed by La Capella Reial de Catalunya under the direction of Jordi Savall. The 'Missa pro Defunctis' was composed during the plague that struck Barcelona in the mid-17th century, while the 'Missa de Batalla' celebrates the conquest of the Kingdom of Naples with rhythms and choral effects.
The work, originally released by Astrée, was reissued by Naïve as part of the 'Música Ibérica' series. The masses are sung in Latin.
Recommended for listeners of Iberian Baroque music and for those who value Jordi Savall's historically informed performances.
