LIBER : Ensemble for Early Music

—Crowned with Laurels—
Poetry and Music in Trecento Italy

The award-winning ensemble LIBER (formerly Liber unUsualis) explores the elegant beauty and fiery emotions of fourteenth century Italian music. They pay tribute to the revered fathers of Humanism—Francesco Petrarch, Giovanni Boccaccio, and Franco Sacchetti—through musical settings of their poems by Jacopo da Bologna, Niccolò da Perugia, and the poet-composer Francesco Landini, who was honored by King Peter of Cyprus with a crown of laurels.
