When Notre Dame was New
At Washington National Cathedral
January 7 & 8, 2005
The Consort joins forces with the famed Norwegian vocal ensemble Trio Mediaeval to celebrate the Parisian avant-garde that flourished when High Gothic cathedrals were new and when the foundational principles of Western music were being established by composers such as Leonin and Perotin. The great organa, conducti, and motets of the Notre Dame School are at the heart of this program, along with instrumental dances from the period.
