Imprisoned in Pavia in the early 520s, Boethius could not have anticipated that his final work would become one of the most widely read books of the Middle Ages. The Consolation of Philosophy portrays his struggle to reconcile himself to his fate by exploring the ways of man, the role of Fortune, and the major questions of good and evil. Evidence that the poems of the Consolation were sung in the early Middle Ages survives in the form of musical notation added to over thirty extant manuscripts dating from the ninth through to the beginning of the twelfth century. Through scholarly detective work, the members of Sequentia, together with a Cambridge eminence in the medieval melodic tradition linked to Boethius’ work, Sam Barrett, have been able to produce a convincing reconstruction of this lost repertory. Barrett himself signs the main booklet essay and provides some fascinating insights therein.

Evidence suggests that the laments in the sixth century work of Boethius were sung, and this is an attempt at reconstruction, with the help of scholar Sam Barrett. They are based primarily on a fragment from the Cambridge Songs (compiled c.1040), boosted by a rediscovered Canterbury source. The instrumental pieces are unrelated, "reconstructed from a contemporary Anglo-Saxon repertory from neaby Winchester."
The earlier Sequentia program based largely on the same Cambridge Songs source, and featuring previous attempts at reconstructing the Boethius melodies "Lost Songs of the Rhineland Harper" ⤳ • Lost Songs of the Rhin...

#medievalmusic #sequentia #boethius - Hudba
How did I miss this... I look forward to sharing this with my students next time I teach Boethius in my Philosophia Medievale course.
Absolutely great idea! I find music is a powerful way of bringing history to life for modern audiences, and the music is absolutely beautiful on it's own.
Sarap pakinggan,para akung bumalik sa nakaraang panahon,pag nakakarinig ako ng ganitong musika,
Magic
Sono un grande amante della filosofia di Boezio e della sua figura politica e storica.
Un uomo che venne mandato al macello per una finta accusa mossa dalla parte gotica del Senato, solo per un capriccio dei suoi avversari politici.
Re Teodorico, in tutto questo, non si degnò di indagare fino in fondo sulla faccenda, tant'è che lo fece condannare a morte.
Una fine indegna per un uomo come lui.
L'ultimo dei romani, il primo dei medievali: colui che diede vita alla filosofia medievale riprendendo la filosofia di Platone, Porfirio ed Aristotele.
Dante, più tardi, per la Divina Commedia, prenderà ispirazione dalla sua metrica e dal suo stile narrativo.
Prenderò questo video come un regalo!
Grazie mille, Musica Medievale! :)

Fantastic, cutting-edge detective work! Well done medievalists, you've knocked it out the park again!
I really recommend reading the Consolation to everyone. It's a work with a lot of feeling and amazing clarity, even in the more technical final book.
You find such great material from all over the medieval world to post on this channel. It is much appreciated.
Oh yes, yes, yes, a new video and music for a potentially rainy day here on the Central Cost of California =----> =----> =----> Perfect for writing of riding and adventure in Medeival Ireland with a new soundtrack =----> =----> =---->
wow 💚🐸
absolutely fantastic, thank you very much.
C'est tellement beau, merci, merci. J'adore l'ensemble Sequentia, la musique et les voix sont parfaites. C'est une joie de les entendre à nouveau.
Como cada publicación, a cada cual más fascinante, los vídeos, las imágenes, todo en sí es una bellísima obra de Arte y el acompañamiento Musical de la Edad Media, es algo inefable.

Greetings from 🇲🇽!
Esto sí, que no lo conocía. Ingenioso y bien ejecutado por Sequentia como siempre. Un gran aporte, muchas gracias
Ho dato la mia tesi di laurea sulle operette teologiche di Boezio, e mi ero iscritta a filosofia dopo aver letto la sua Consolatio. Sono particolarmente affezionata a questo autore, perciò.
I love you soo soo soo soo much ♥️🙏🏽😌💎

This music is great! I've never heard anything like that before visiting your youtube page! Cantigas De Santa Maria, Laudario di Cortona, "Monks singing Gregorian Chants" and "Music from the island monastery" are also great! In my opinion, good music is the one to which you can fall asleep, lingering, evoking dreams. And stranger than that, I remain aware and do not fall asleep, but at the same time I float away, listening to this music. And it seems to have a positive effect on the mind, on the inner world, on feelings, somehow makes one kinder and, in my opinion, even smarter. This kind of music is really useful for self-improvement.And who were the creators of this kind of music in the Middle Ages? Who are the authors of this music? What is the name of this style in music? Please advise me to a lover of this kind of music the names of medieval musicians and their creations, which I, who love this kind of music, should definitely hear! And what were the countries where this style of music was popular? Perhaps there are books where one can read about this style of music?
