Rediscovered by chance at an auction, a long-forgotten 1470 manuscript—now known as the Leuven Chansonnier—has been brought back to life through music. Its rebirth takes the form of a 4-CD set that revives the musical splendour of the French court in the Loire Valley. The story is told by Anna Danilevskaia, director of the Sollazzo Ensemble, with a first stop in New York.
