Background: Vigorous and colourful medieval dances revealed by Jordi Savall! The Estampie is a medieval dance consisting of four to seven sections, called puncta, each of which is repeated. The more widely accepted etymology relates it to stamper, to stamp the feet. In this irresistible album, Jordi Savall explores a Royal manuscript from the French National Library. Illuminations and paintings from the period seem to indicate that the estampie involves fairly vigorous hopping. The earliest reported example of this musical form is the song 'Kalenda Maya', supposedly written by the troubadour Raimbaut de Vaqueiras (1180-1207) to the melody of an estampida played by French jongleurs. |
