Nelson - Medieval Suite: I. Homage to Leonin

from The Danserye by UPEI Wind Symphony

/

about

This music captures the style of music of two 12th-century composers and places it within a contemporary context. With "Homage to Leonin" there is a sung melody, known as Gregorian chant, which builds to a climax before closing as it began. "Homage to Perotin" captures the sound of a medieval band, with driving rhythmic intensity, insisted dissonances, and brass fanfare-like passages.
