Ensemble: Martin Best Medieval Ensemble Album: The Dante Troubadours Video: Ms. 8530 • 2021 is celebrating Dante’s 700th year anniversary and many events dedicated to the poet are taking place here in Italy. Among the many audio publications dedicated to Dante, I chose this one by Martin Best, an English musician active in the field of early music since the 60s. In this work, Best and his ensemble have combined pieces of some troubadours mentioned in Dante’s works with some Italian Istampitte and Salterelli, contemporary with the poet. For the images of the video I chose the version of the Divine Comedy of the Ms-8530 because images inside are simply beautiful, moreover the manuscript was made in the fourteenth century, the century in which Dante lived. • 1 Lamento Di Tristano - Anon.
