The troubadours were the 12th & 13th century Occitanian singer-songwriters whose poetry inspired Europe. They were also part of a unique culture that was suppressed after the wars of the Albigensian Crusade. The troubadours thereafter dispersed, but continued to write and poetically inspire — even their victors (the French). Although they are most famously about love, Troubadour lyrics therefore also explore political and religious themes; often tragic, they also sometimes use humour and satire. This recording with ensemble Belladonna reflects all of these various troubadour styles and themes.
