This collection of 13th and 14th
century sacred choral pieces includes music taken from a manuscript found in
the Bologna Music Museum known as the Q11 code, which is extremely rare in
that it was written for female voices. The music is performed by the
Ensemble Korymbus and its musical director Alessandra Fiori.
Amongst the many treasures preserved in the Bologna Music Museum is a
manuscript known as the Q.11 code which originally dates from the end of the
13th and beginning of the 14th century. It is the only collection to be
found in Italy (and one of the very few known around Europe) dedicated to
monodic and polyphonic sacred works written for the female voices of convent
nuns. Alongside the Kyrie and Gloria of the Gregorian mass, the manuscript
also includes settings of the Benedicamus Domino and Alleluia in modern
style.
The programme on the CD also includes four works taken from the famous Codex
Las Huelgas of Burgos, one of the most important sources of the XIII century
repertoire, and this helps to place the works of the Bologna manuscript
within a wider stylistic context.
