Saeculorum by Trouvere Medieval Minstrels
Saeculorum is a chronological tour of medieval music. There are 4 pieces from each of five different centuries, from the 11th to the 15th.
This album features new material from Trouvere and also some hidden gems from our past, some of which never found their way onto an album and some of which featured on albums that are now discontinued. However, it seemed a tragedy to us for these tunes to remain hidden - so here they are! One of these tunes is from our very first year way back in 1998!
Trouvere have also released Saeculorum as five short films - one for each century - that can be found on Trouvere's YouTube page

We have been playing music together for over twenty years, and our particular love is for the music of the high middle ages - the time of the crusades and of the arts of courtly love. We enjoy rediscovering, recreating and re-interpreting the magnificent music of these times, based on thorough historical research alongside our musical experience and understanding.
