Micrologus
Did the Seville chansonnier actually originate from Naples? That could explain the considerable number of strambotti recorded in it. These Italian songs were all the rage in the tip of the boot in the early 16th century. From there, the manuscript would have ended up at Seville Cathedral via Christopher Columbus' son. Ensemble Micrologus hems and haws two southern temperaments in boundlessly beautiful love poetry.
