Concert

Step into a world of medieval romance and intrigue as Collectio Musicorum brings to life the legendary tale of Jaufre Rudel, a 12th-century troubadour whose songs of unrequited love continue to inspire across the ages.
According to legend, Rudel fell deeply in love with the Countess of Tripoli without ever having seen her. Driven by longing, he set sail for Lebanon to be with her, only to perish upon his arrival. His story, intertwined with the poetry and music of the troubadours, captures the spirit of devotion, artistry, and adventure.

Experience the music of Jaufre Rudel—all his surviving compositions—along with selections by his contemporary Marcabru and other troubadours. Performed in the mystical ambiance of the Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art, this is an evening where history, legend, and music converge.

The concert will be performed by Alexander Longnecker, tenor; Christopher Morrongiello, lute; Jeff Dailey and Richard Walker, recorders.
