This recording by the Solazzo Ensemble isn't just one to play "en seumeillant" – "while dreaming" – but also "en fumant" - while smoking - as it also contains the smoke-themed Fumeux fume and Puisque je sui fumeux – a whole collection of songs thought of as "medieval", but which in fact come from a very wide variety of repertoires, from Italy and France, running from the 13th to the early 15th centuries. Two centuries of splendour, change – and sometimes extravagance, as the secret society of the Fumeurs (the originators of the smokier tracks on this album) were known for their eccentricities – as the smoky pieces here will surely prove. The understanding of death also provides space for musical and poetic interpretations, not exclusively religious ones: some portray death as a kind of endless dream. The "medieval" voices of the Swiss Solazzo Ensemble are accompanied here by a range of instruments from the period: hurdy-gurdies, vielles (no relation to the hurdy-gurdy: the vielle is a primitive medieval ancestor of the viola and violin) and harps. © SM/Qobuz
