      In this recording, Constantinople delves into the music played, sung, and heard by the troubadours and trouveres.
      Although some of the medieval instrumental and vocal repertoire has come down to us notated in manuscripts of that era, it is clear that this music lived and circulated chiefly thanks to oral tradition.   Memory was the main vector of transmission in that age.   Both music and poetry were then driven by a kind of creative energy that would in later times manifest itself otherwise.
