About this concert
Galanterie: an invention of the Enlightenment? Courtliness in music goes back centuries! ClubMediéval explores the dos and don'ts of courtly love as recorded in the Gruuthuse manuscript: an audio record of middle-class life in Bruges around 1400. Crude peasant farces clash with refined love lyrics, and farewell songs almost guaranteed to create goosebumps.

About the performers
The musicians of ClubMediéval share a passion for music of the Late Middle Ages. They seek each other out to spin their polyphonic threads, to hold their webs up to the light and to use them to wrap up their audience. They are of the opinion that this medieval music has a special, poetic relevance in our hectic times. Thomas Baeté is ClubMediéval’s artistic director. The ensemble is based in Brussels and is made up of singers and instrumentalists from various European countries.
