La bóveda y las voces

por el camino de Josquin

Andrés, Ramón

Following a path is recognizing the footsteps of those who walked it before, surrendering to the fate of its star. Ramón Andrés walks the paths of another time in the footsteps of Josquin Desprez, the first teacher of the Franco-Flemish school, as if he himself were an inhabitant of those distant days. And it is that, despite the fame that he garnered in life, the wake of Desprez, the prince of polyphony, runs in the shadows, turning him into a figure as enigmatic as it is elusive. From the beginning of his musical training at Saint-Quentin, in France, as a choirboy, to the collegiate church of Condé-sur-l'Escaut, where he finished his days as provost, passing through the courts of Milan, Rome, Florence and Ferrara , where the composer moved in search of greater economic stability, this tour will allow us to discover Renaissance society and meet many other characters who helped shape that unique era, such as Leonardo da Vinci, Lucrezia Borgia, Pietro Bembo, Gaffurio and Pinturicchio. A work as original as it is daring, which brings us closer to an extraordinary past that seeks echoes in the present.
