A real couple... a true duet ! An Dud Nevez ( pronounce: "an dhut neh veh") specalizes in historical music on period instruments. (see also "celtic music") The musicians : Claude Nadeau : period bombard, voice, mediaeval harp, percussions,
tales... |
|
Their 13th-century characters, brought back from the past to talk about Middle Ages here and now, in the first person singular, and their unique instruments with their age-old non-tempered scales and their long-forgotten timbres, transport the listener to a place beyond time.

Relying on the most recent musicological research, based on sources as mediaeval manuscripts and iconography, An Dud Nevez is notable for its seriousness, truly living the Middle Ages not only as a profession but also as a passion. Going so far as to seek the collaboration of an instrument maker to reconstitute early instruments - the fruits of their own musicological research, they strive to recreate as accurately as possible a repertoire from the 12th to the 14th century, which is both rich and surprising; they have taken up the challenge of combining extreme historical rigour with an energy which leaves no-one indifferent.
