Sabio / Rossignol - Canti Dei Pellegrini Medioevali [CD]

La Rossignol is a cultural association that presents Italian Renaissance music and dance. Their study of direct sources, alongside historical, organologic and iconographic research, has brought the members of this ensemble to esteemed artistic activities across Europe, Asia, and North America. Their portfolio includes collaboration with the greatest world broadcasting companies, consultancies, and artistic direction, training and refresher courses, and the composition of music for theatre shows and medieval dancing. In "Anno Domini MCCC" they propose an example of music that accompanied pilgrims towards the Holy Destinations of faith in the medieval days, and that were a discovery symbol of the world and of themselves. Those songs were handed down from some manuscripts in which the curators gathered and transcribed the heritage, till then handed down orally over centuries.
