Jamais ung cueur: Extraits des chansons musicales d’Attaignant (1533)
The prolific music publisher Pierre Attaignant published two collections of chansons musicales which make up the first French books of music for Renaissance transverse flutes. These include polyphonic songs by the immensely popular songwriters Claudin de Sermisy, Josquin, Festa, Lupi, Vermont, Jacotin, le Heurteur and more. We pair these polyphonic pieces with Attaignant’s ornate transcriptions of songs for keyboard.
Join us for an intimate afternoon of music and poetry.
