Chansons de Toile, songs from women’s room in Middle Ages - Ensemble Ligeriana, Dir. Katia Caré

[@aov1509]

The amount of stress I've been enduring past few days is overwhelming, but could finally take a deep breath and calm down for a good hour because of this beautiful piece if art. Hope whoever reads this find peace and calm, even if for a short hour

[@RogerioLupoArteCientifica]

I was led to a transcendent state of being with the last song just now, and by the voice of this talented singer. As I read your comment, what came to mind is that you allowed it. Many people are going through immense stress but don't allow themselves to leave everything aside, truly forget about it all, and merge with their listening experience. You know the path, you allow this repose to your soul, and probably deep down you know what really matters.

[@jpraise6771]

I know you've been struggling with thoughts of suicide. Listen if you will There is a way to be free from the bondage of your past, It does not define you whatsoever. Be reborn in CHRIST, who gave up his own life in love, that you may live your life in mercy You are entitled nothing. But the mercy of God gives you a fountain of life no gold on this earth can match Cry out to God for mercy, even though you are merciless Cry out to God for hope. There is hope for the hopeless

[@ElectrikCandies]

How wonderful is it that we can finally somewhat hear and experience women's intimate experiences from more than 500 years ago. I was introduced to the concept of Chansons de toile 20 years ago by a french singer (Émilie Simon) I really adore. Back then, a 12 years from a poor family with no education and no knowledge of musical theory, it was impossible to grasp what the term meant musically, only it's historical background (and information was really limited). And now I am blessed with this amazingly middle of the night discovery. I am a Hildegard Von Bingen fan, so this complements it well. Thank you so much, it touched my soul.

[@MusicaMedievale]

Interesting experience, thank you! 🌷

[@NishkamTheGeneral]

[@GrootsieTheDog]

After reading the description, it’s both comforting and disturbing to know that people never change...and people’s inner lives in the medieval period are not much different then our own. We’ve always had our unrealistic fantasies of love and romance 🧚🏼‍♂️

[@MusicaMedievale]

Yes, I agree with you, there are not many differences from medieval people to us, except that they invented the idea of romanticism and they didn’t judge any other era by thinking that they were better...

[@mesechabe]

Yes, people remain the same in core responses. There's a young English guy who studies linguistics and makes videos, who says he got interested in making videos using Anglo Saxon dialogue so people would see that folks of those times were just like in in a sense-- no more foolish, no less intelligent, with the same kinds of emotional concerns. And it's important to see (methinks) that life was no idealized romp of beauty and spirituality (nor world of endless brutality.)

Muchas gracias al trabajo de todos aquellos que hicieron posible que estas bellas canciones y melodías atravesaran los siglos para llegar hasta nosotros y si eso fue posible fue por la belleza del canto seguramente las palabras los textos, la música sus líneas melódicas muy puras son músicas esenciales que tocan el alma. Sé que por la región occitana hace más de 500 años vivieron en esa región las trovadoras grupos compuestos solo por mujeres que escribían textos y músicas y cantaban este episodio es poco conocido, la historia oficial no lo habla y la tradición oral tampoco y su descubrimiento ha sido posible gracias a pistas que llevaban de una familia a otra de la región de verdad fue un trabajo que fue muy ocultado de estas mujeres músicos al mismo estilo que los trovadores algunas de ellas escribieron y esos escritos se han ido recuperando poco a poco Soy una Chilena que vive en Paris y adoro la música antigua

@@johnfalkenstine8377 There is no SSL certification, which really doesn't say that much. The only thing is that side injection should be impossible, but SSL certification doesn't give much protection. More a nice side income for ISP's than anything really useful as there are plenty of methods to inject malware. If you want some level of security, run Linux which doesn't leave known security bugs unfixed for decades like Windows and iOS. It largely depends on what type of site you're going.

La toile is French for cloth. So perhaps a translation of the title would be "weaving songs" or "spinning songs", with the idea that the songs were sung by women while weaving?

[@martijnspruit]

It's exactly that.

Embroidery was very much an activity for upper class women. Not so much weaving as anything related to embellishing cloth. Weaving and spinning really was more for the peasants.

>Chansons de Toile: songs from women’s room I have a feeling that we will see some absolutely weird images as well....for our historical studies of course. We have to face the bare naked truth! On a side note, back in my school days, the boys bathroom was always horrible, where the girls bathroom was like paradise in comparison. A women could casually sit in there and sing and play the harp for the girls, to support "relaxation". In the boys bathroom, on the other hand, she would struggle to breathe and couldn't concentrate on her harp. In some way, the music would then sound like the smell, if you know what I mean. Music really speaks.
