Description:

"Codex Las Huelgas: Bestiary & Divine Symbols" is a captivating CD release by Jordi Savall, Capella Reial de Catalunya, and Hespèrion XXI under the renowned ALIA VOX label. This album brings to life the mystical world of medieval Spain through music inspired by the Codex Las Huelgas?a 14th-century manuscript from the Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real de Las Huelgas. The recording explores both sacred and secular pieces, focusing on bestiaries (medieval animal symbolism) and divine motifs that shaped spiritual thought in Europe?s Middle Ages. Listeners are transported into an era where music was both devotion and storytelling. Jordi Savall stands as one of today?s most influential figures in early music interpretation. With decades-long expertise as a viol player, conductor, and scholar, he has revived forgotten repertoires with his ensembles Capella Reial de Catalunya and Hespèrion XXI. His work has earned him prestigious awards such as Grammy nominations, Diapason d?Ors, and honorary distinctions worldwide for his dedication to cultural heritage. ALIA VOX is celebrated for its commitment to high-quality recordings rooted in historical authenticity. Founded by Jordi Savall himself in 1998, this independent label specializes in early music projects that combine scholarly research with artistic excellence?making each release not just an album but a journey through time.
