The women of Anonymous 4 revisit their favorite era with repertoire from the Codex Las Huelgas. Spanning the entire 13th century - from virtuosic motets and conductus to heartfelt laments, plainchants and sacred songs - this important manuscript was compiled for a convent of aristocratic Castilian women who (in spite of a rule forbidding Cistercian nuns from singing polyphony) sang some of the most beautiful and demanding music from all across Gothic-era Europe.
Compilé pour un couvent castillan, le célèbre manuscrit de Las Huelgas couvre l'ensemble du xiiie siècle, à travers motets, lamentations et conductus typiques de l'Ars Antiqua. Confié à l'origine à des nonnes issues de l'aristocratie, ces polyphonies habituellement réservées aux hommes et transcendées aujourd'hui par les quatre chanteuses d'Anonymous 4 constituent les plus beaux témoignages musicaux de l'Europe gothique.
