About this concert
The Burgundian rulers attached great importance to a high-quality court chapel, but music could also be heard daily in their private apartments. Minstrels entertained the courtiers and thereby influenced the musical agenda of Europe’s political epicentre. With examples of the ‘high’ and ‘low’ oeuvre of Dufay and Binchois – the golden pair of Burgundian composers – Les haulz et les bas live up to their name.
