Proudly Laus Polyphoniae presents for the first time the new ensemble of ‘ami d’AMUZ’ Thomas Baeté: ClubMediéval. It offers a concert programme based on the Squarcialupi Codex, the richly decorated manuscript with the largest anthology of Italian music from the 14th century that we know of. Ironically enough it was exactly the mysterious 16 blank folios in this manuscript that kept haunting Baeté. Why were those sheets never filled up? Did the scribe have to discontinue his work unexpectedly? And if so, why? For what kind of music could these pages have been intended? The brand new ensemble right away proves its mettle from its most creative angle and makes a bold attempt to complete Squarcialupi’s legendary white folios. A debut that commands respect!
