These works often celebrate the Virgin Mary and Christ's Passion and bear witness to an aesthetic deeply rooted in popular fervour, frequently combining homophonic writing with a direct expressiveness aimed at the common folk and influenced by Franco-Flemish songs. Le Miroir de Musique take their inspiration from the musicians of the Scuole Grandi of the Venetian Renaissance and recreate a sound world that lay at the crossroads of spirituality and nascent humanism.","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46012430057706,"sku":"5400439004863","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4488837-3518039.jpg?v=1778216191"},{"product_id":"gosswin-miroir-de-musique","title":"Gosswin: Selected Works \/ Romain, Le Miroir de Musique","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in the Prince-Bishopric of Liège, Antoine Gosswin was recruited at a very young age by the Bavarian court chapel, where he was in frequent contact with Orlando di Lasso and accompanied the Emperor Maximilian II on his travels. Esteemed as a singer and composer, he was also part of the violin band employed by Duke Albert V at the legendary wedding of Prince William in 1568. Gosswin would go on to conduct the chapel of Prince Ernest, Bishop of Freising and later of Liège, to whom he dedicated his Newe teutsche Lieder. Extremely prolific, Gosswin produced several masses and motets as well as madrigals and German songs in which he continued the musical developments initiated by his master Lasso.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46012777234666,"sku":"5400439004504","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4218778-3014532_3708ea4d-b596-4e10-a8b1-17d0ed61a16f.jpg?v=1778234136"},{"product_id":"gilles-binchois-loyal-souvenir","title":"Gilles Binchois: Loyal souvenir","description":"Gilles Binchois (ca 1400-1460), was one of the most eminent composers of the early Renaissance. Highly esteemed by his fellows, Binchois left a lasting legacy, notably through his polyphonic chansons and sacred works, although these remain unfamiliar to the general public. This selection of works by Binchois, born in Hainault, shows the evolution of his musical language from the beginnings of the burgundian style to the later instrumental transcriptions of some of his works, as these bear witness to the timeless beauty of his melodies and harmonic structures.","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46012787982570,"sku":"5400439004733","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/4420819-3383644.jpg?v=1778211386"},{"product_id":"martini-la-fleur-de-biaulte-roman-849947","title":"Martini: La Fleur de Biaulte \/ Roman, Le miroir de musique","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn in Leuze (Hainaut) around 1430, Johannes Martini was initially active in Konstanz, then in Milan and Ferrara, where he died on 23 October 1497.

The ensemble is based in Basel (CH) and brings together the most prolific of early music performers, many of whom are graduates of the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. The image of a \"Mirror of Music\" is borrowed from Jacques de Li�ge's treatise (Speculum Musicae), and reflects our goal of painting a vivid picture of medieval and Renaissance music, in a spirit of fidelity to the original sources.  This project was first conceived for the Festtage Alter Musik in Basel in 2013, at the suggestion of Peter Reidemeister. The program was developed in close collaboration between the five musicians and the musicologist Martin Kirnbauer.","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46027554717930,"sku":"5400439003545","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/2840871.jpg?v=1778289780"},{"product_id":"johannes-de-lymburgia-gaude-felix-padua","title":"Johannes de Lymburgia: Gaude felix Padua","description":"Born around 1380 in the Duchy of Limburg, possibly in the little town of the same name, Johannes de Limburgia was active for a long time in Li�ge, then in Italy. We have evidence of his presence in Vicenza between 1431 and 1436, and several of his works refer explicitly to Vicenza, as well as to Venice and Padua, demonstrating a strong connection with northern Italy, where his music was compiled. His output - more than 45 works - is contained in three large manuscripts from the first half of the fifteenth century, alongside music by other composers from north of the Alps, such as Johannes Ciconia and Guillaume Dufay. Though only sacred music by Limburgia has survived, it is richly varied, reflecting both the consistency of the Franco-Flemish style and the composer's own inventive taste for harmonic and melodic experimentation. The works here are explored by Le miroir de musique, led by Baptiste Romain.","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46027578900714,"sku":"5400439004023","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3666561-2424050.jpg?v=1778243473"},{"product_id":"in-seculum-viellatoris-the-medieval-vielle-romain-74051","title":"In Seculum Viellatoris - The Medieval Vielle \/ Romain, Le miroir de musique","description":"Baptiste Romain, director of the ensemble Le Miroir de Musique, has just been appointed professor at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. To mark this occasion, he enriches the 'Instruments' series on the Ricercar label with a recital devoted to the medieval vielle (bowed fiddle): troubadour songs and dances and polyphonic compositions from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries illustrate the various stages in the evolution of this instrument, the ancestor of the violin. After general musical studies focusing on violin and composition at the CNR Rueil-Malmaison, Baptiste Romain chose to specialize in the musical repertoire of the Middle Ages and Renaisance by practicing the bow vielle and bagpipes. After training at the Center for Medieval Music in Paris, notably with Marco Horvat, he studied at the Schola Cantorum in Basel, with Randall Cook, Dominique Vellard and Crawford Young, while regularly practicing ensemble music with Pierre Hamon at the National Conservatory of Lyon. He received his violin soloist diploma from the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in 2008.","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46027609932010,"sku":"5400439003880","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3772534.jpg?v=1778272036"},{"product_id":"arnold-hugo-de-lantins-secular-works-97260","title":"Arnold \u0026 Hugo De Lantins: Secular Works","description":"\u003cimg src=\"\/graphics\/features\/gramophone_choice.jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46027733270762,"sku":"5400439003651","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/3068306.jpg?v=1778306316"},{"product_id":"the-birth-of-the-violin","title":"The Birth of the Violin","description":"Classical Music","brand":"Ricercar","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":46027735859434,"sku":"5400439003330","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/3423\/3066\/files\/2200094.jpg?v=1778311012"}],"url":"https:\/\/arkivmusic.com\/collections\/le-miroir-de-musique.oembed","provider":"ArkivMusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
