"Flower of Passion, Thorn of Despair: Chivalry and Courtly Love in the Waning Middle Ages"

The concert features 15th Century chansons from the Court of Philip of Burgundy--music by Dufay, Binchois, Morton and other court composers. The Burgundian chanson tradition was a crucial step in the development of Western music leading into the refined, mature polyphony of the high Renaissance These art songs are suffused with grand pathos: the longing and ecstasy of love and the pain and bitterness of unrequited passion.
