The 12th century in France, especially in Paris--the artistic, educational, and religious center of Western Europe--saw enormous progress in the arts, architecture, and education. Not surprisingly, technical and theoretical aspects of music advanced as well. On this disc, the six-voice men's ensemble Lionheart demonstrates in vivid, rich vocal tones the sometimes stark but always powerful sound of Medieval chant and its expanded two- and three-part forms. The liner notes give clear explanations of the compositions and provide the listener with meaningful historical context. But listening to these excellent voices is not just an educational experience. The music has an inherent purity, sensuality, and honesty that's refreshing and reassuring. --David Vernier\n\nProduct description\n\nParis 1200: Chant and Polyphony from 12th Century France\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00000C422\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00000C422.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Perotin|Leonin|Lionheart\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
