Trobadors catalans

Although the subject of Troubadours has always been connected to Catalan music and Literature few recordings exist around those songs. This CD brings together the Catalan Troubadours songs that exist written as melody or contrafacta. Besides the historical interest, further reasons justify this CD: the edition of the Berenguer de Palol songs (Paris National Library) and the manuscripts of Sant Joan de les Abadesses along with the song of Pons d´Ortafa and Guillem de Cabestany. All of these melodies bring us closer to the phenomena of the Troubadours in Catalonia during the middle ages.
