Remarks:

The hypnotic and mysterious music heard on this recording survives thanks only to the grandest of all thirteenth-century songbooks, the 'Chansonnier du Roi' (c. 1270-1320), so named for its large number of songs attributed to King Thibaut IV of Navarre. In addition to assembling some 400 trouvere songs, the richly illuminated manuscript is among the earliest collections to preserve medieval dance tunes. These "royal dances and estampies" have all been reconstructed in full by Jordi Savall and are recorded here together for the first time, in vibrantly colorful performances by Hesperion XI.
