| Don’t be put off by the rather stiff and wordy subtitle, “Musica figurata in Wroclaw and Silesia in the 14th and 15th centuries.” Simply stated, we have here a top-notch ensemble of singers and instrumentalists performing mensural music from a number of Central European sources including, for the later works, two notable collections now residing in the Jagellonian University of Cracow and the University Library in Warsaw. |

| One of the most curious books on music published during the Renaissance is Orchésographie (Langres, 1589) by Thoinot Arbeau, a priest hailing from Dijon who, after studying law, held various posts at the cathedral of Langres. The book is a dance manual, the only one of its kind published in France during the second half of the 16th century. |

| The details of Johann Valentin Meder’s life are somewhat sketchy. Born in Wasungen to a musical family, Meder worked as a professional singer in his early days. According to a work list compiled by the composer’s son, Meder was a prolific composer with 12 Masses, five Magnificats, four Passions, numerous concertato motets, two operas, as well as secular vocal and instrumental works to his credit. |
