The French motet of the 13th century (2025)
From 31 January 2025 to 03 May 2025/ France / Montpellier
This course brings together students of several levels. It operates on the principle of an experimental workshop which aims, through the interpretation of the pieces, to put into practice the research work on the French motet of the 13th century.
This research work is based on an original and in-depth study of musical notation. Beyond the performance of the selected pieces, it is a question of questioning the functioning, motivations and purpose of musical notation in a medieval society where the transmission of knowledge is essentially a matter of oral transmission.
