Chansons d’amour d’Acadie et de France

Description

New Brunswick’s Louisbourg Choir presents an original and exceptional recording of Acadian folksongs about love. The program is drawn from the collections Chansons folkloriques d’Acadie-La fleur du rosier and Chansons d’Acadie Collection, with a cappella motets by Jacotin Le Bel (c.1495 – c.1556). This French Renaissance composer drew ideas and inspiration from popular tunes and folksongs of his era.
