Paris 1200 - Ecole De ... - Huelgas Ensemble,paul Van Nevel - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

In the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, the Notre-Dame School in Paris laid the foundations of European polyphony. From Léonin to Pérotin, the art of vocal music moved beyond plainchant and blossomed into a polyphony of unprecedented complexity and daring. A true milestone in musical history, this art combined spiritual fervour and architectural rigour in a creative impulse such as had never been seen before. The Huelgas Ensemble restores its splendour with historical precision and arresting intensity.
