For the Love of Jaqueline by Asteria Asteria : For the Love of Jaqueline.
 Late-medieval vocal and instrumental music.

Antoine Busnoys (1430-1492) ranks among the most avant-garde and prescient composers of his time; a proto-Renaissance composer who is nonetheless firmly grounded in the courtly love tradition of the provencal troubadours.

For the Love of Jaqueline tracks the highs and lows of a real medieval romance through Busnoys' sumptuous music and poetry, with new arrangements by Asteria directly from a 15th century song book found in Dijon, France (Dij MS 517) and recorded at the 14th century Burgundian palace of Germolles.
