Provenance

Where it came from

This recording was released by the Soviet state label Melodiya under their Russian Disc series, reflecting the rigorous academic interest in early European music that flourished within the Soviet conservatory system during the late 1970s. The ensemble Hortus Musicus, founded in Estonia by Andres Mustonen in 1972, became celebrated for their pioneering work in bringing historically informed performance practices to a Soviet audience that had previously had limited exposure to medieval secular repertoires.

The ensemble sought to bridge the gap between rigorous musicological research and expressive performance, focusing on the vibrant secular traditions of the Trecento and late Middle Ages. By utilizing period-appropriate instrumentation to interpret Italian vocal and instrumental forms, they aimed to capture the rhythmic complexity and melodic ornamentation characteristic of the era, ultimately receiving acclaim for their technical precision and their role in establishing a distinct voice for early music performance within the Eastern Bloc.
