Hesperion XXI, Jordi Savall
After more than 220 albums, Jordi Savall is still full of surprises and does just that with this exhilarating recording of a master- piece from the Middle Ages. Compiled in 1325 and rediscovered in... 1904, the Codex Las Huelgas is the only manuscript of his time still kept in its original place : a Cistercian monastery on the road to Compostella in northern Spain. It grants us a privileged access to the music written in the 3 centuries prior to its completion. Jordi Savall selected 11 pieces among the 186 included in the collection. His ensembles La Capella Reial de Catalunya and Hespèrion XXI reveal all the beauties of this fascinating music.
