The Glogau Songbook
Sacred and secular music of the late Gothic in Silesia
Clemencic Consort
René Clemencic, conductor
This CD brings late Gothic sacred and secular music
from Silesia to life again. Masterful as well as intimate
music from a time when the Middle Ages were
drawing to a close and the Renaissance was starting to
emerge – not from one of the great music centers of
the time, but from an exceptionally fruitful cultural
landscape. With such a highly developed culture, it
is thus unsurprising that the Glogau Cathedral is the
origin for the manuscript that we know today as the
“Glogau Songbook”.
