光之源 西班牙中世紀音樂 Gilles Binchois合樂團 Fons Luminis (Codex Las Huelgas) 13th Century Spain Music (Evidence)

The music of the Middle Ages exists today only thanks to the precious work of musicians like Dominique Vellard who is comitted to give life to the liturgical repertoire of the old monasteries. All across the medieval Europe, manuscripts – or codices – keep the chants of the offices. It is precisely in a codex, that of the Spanish monastery Las Huelgas Reales, preserved in the church, that the program of this new disc is born. The Ensemble Gilles Binchois draws on this great book to compose a moment of pure plenitude in the form of a journey through the centuries, bringing together a various set of vocal pieces, sometimes unique, sometimes tinged with European influences, proof that the music circulates during all the Middle Ages.The sound recording, most close to the singers, offers a bright resonance, inherent in the a capella repertoire, as an invitation to meditation.
