The musical tapestry on this disc, woven with air and a great variety of recorders, presents compositions derived from widely differing civilizations and modes of thought, much as though it had sprung from Baudelaire's musing. This rich contrast between the Middle Ages and the present time brings to light a veritable archaeology of sound atmospheres in which new perspectives are revealed to our hearing, ranging from medieval modes to the atonality of our own century. Entire stories lie concealed behind the melodies of some of the pieces. Their diversity extends from a simple rondeau (Mes cuers est imprisones en trop cruel prison) which has come down to us via the pages of the famous Chansonnier de Noailles, to the lyrical lay of Tristan.
