Info for mundus et musica

On their first album, QuaLia presents a collection of polyphonic music from late medieval sources, especially from manuscripts around the year 1500. in a very short period of time around the turn of the 15th century, the european music culture changed from the ancient phytagoreic to meantone temperament and created some astounding, highly complex and intellectually as well as musically challenging works, taking inspiration from both old and modern musical influences. QuaLia lets the listener immerse into an almost alien musical world, into the deep roots and sources of being of european music history, which in today’s perception is almost lost completely.

Qualia seems to be a foreign word yet it expresses a concept that is familiar to us: how we experience things. A qualia can be considered as a feeling, such as the depth of color, or the musicality of an interpreter. it is generally accepted that it is the «properties of sensory experience.

Qualia seeks to revive old sources: musical, literary or pictorial. As musicians and researchers, our goal is to successfully bring out the richness and diversity of these sources through thematic concerts. A time, a fact, a specific place, a character ; these are so many directions that we can use to develop a professional project. We are not trying to create a documentary work, but a testimony. Because each witness is subjective, it then becomes a real creation. (Lambert Colson, 2012)
