From the middle of the thirteenth century, the Meissen Margrave Heinrich the Illustrious ruled as the new Thuringian Landgrave. He became famous primarily as a result of his magnificent court establishment and his activities as patron of the arts, poet, and composer. Besides his legendary tournaments, six of his songs have come down to us in the Grosse Heidelberger Liederhandschrift (Codex Manesse). This new TALANTON-CD is dedicated to a selection of songs, dances, and poems around the illustrious prince, played masterly and vivaciously by the ensemble IOCULATORES, and declaimed in Middle High German by Jörg Peukert.
