Ensemble: Ars Cameralis, Lukáš Matoušek dir. Album: Gothic Music In Bohemia 12th - 15th Century Video: Codex Gigas or Devil's Bible, Bohemia - XIII secolo • The compositions selected for this recording show the musical past of Bohemian music. To a large extont there was a cosmopolitan style that was shared by musicians throughout Europe. But at the same time there were regional styles whose individual characteristics were also borrowed eventually to appear beyond their riative area. Nowhere is this mixture of the cosmopolitan and regional better represented than in the Czech lands of the Middle Ages. In the 13th century the last of the Přemyslidi rulers strengthened the political position of the Czecn lands within the framework of Europe. This was also a time when music flowered, particularly at the Pregue courts. Several prominent minnesingers resided there, notably Neidhart von Reuenthal (1190-1240) and Tannhäuser (1200-1266). Medieval musicians, minstrels and joculators included not only love songs but also dance music in their repertoires. “Ductia“ is one of the oldest preserved polyphonic dances of that time. Czech music was influenced by the love songs of the troubadours, and by that of trouvères, as transmitled eastward by minnesingers [...]. (from the booklet) Concerning the video: I decided to use the wonderful Codex Gigas, also known as the Devil's Bible for the giant painting of a devil figure inside. This manuscript is the largest medieval manuscript ever made and was made in Bohemia in the 13th century, perfect for the music presented in this album. I wish you happy listening!
