Millenarium

Millenarium is an Italian early music ensemble that brings medieval and Renaissance sounds to life with scholarly rigor and infectious energy. Founded by director Maurizio Less, the group specializes in reconstructing ancient musical traditions through meticulous research into historical manuscripts, instruments, and performance practices. Their discography – including vibrant releases like *Danza, danses médiévales* and *Chansons de troubadours et danses de jongleurs* – reveals a particular knack for reviving the earthy rhythms of dance music and the poetic lyricism of troubadour songs. Whether interpreting the playful irreverence of Carmina Burana manuscripts or the courtly elegance of French trouvère melodies, Millenarium balances academic precision with a palpable joy for making centuries-old music feel freshly alive. Their work often features rare instruments like hurdy-gurdies, medieval harps, and percussion, creating a sonic time machine for modern listeners.
