Ensemble Leones
Straight from the heart: chansonnier Cordiforme
Ensemble Leones, famed for its intense and wellconstructed concerts, has set its sights on the Chansonnier Cordiforme, one of the most unique music manuscripts. This especially beautiful, heart-shaped manuscript contains French and Italian courtly love songs by well-known composers such as Guillaume Du Fay, Johannes Ockeghem and Gilles Binchois, as well as by forgotten masters. Ensemble Leones plays and sings music about all aspects of love: hope, desire, and melancholy contemplations of past loves.
