Music from the Notre-Dame Repertoire and by Women Trouvères:

anon.:

A vos vieg, chevalier sire / Et Florebit

Je sui jonete / He Diex! je n'ai pas mari / Veritatem

Soufres, maris, et si ne vous anuit

S'on me regarde / Prenes I garde / He! Mi Enfant

Cil bruns ne me meine mie / In Seculum

Nus ne mi pourroit / Nonne sui, nonne, laissier / Aptatur

Joliement en douce / Quant voi la florete / Je sui joliete / Aptatur

Non vos relinquam, Homo quo vigeas

Perotinus:

Alleluia posui adiutorium

Viderunt omnes

Music Ficta, Bo Holten

Until recently the rôle of women as composers and performers of both sacred and secular music during the Middle Ages has been seriously underestimated.

This disc, sung by the all-female group Musica Ficta, reveals how well suited to women’s voices are music from Notre-Dame in Paris and the songs of many trouvères (the northern counterparts of the troubadours of Languedoc).

The latter songs, for instance, often feature female protagonists and present different perspectives on love and life to those by their male counterparts.
