The Reign of the Popes of Avignon: Notre‐Dame de Paris

About the Event

The Medieval Music series at Notre‐Dame de Paris presents a program of music from the period of the popes of Avignon.

Notre‐Dame de Paris was the center of polyphonic music in medieval France, while the cathedrals of Chartres, Rouen, and Beauvais were important for the development of monophonic musical forms, such as tropes and liturgical drama. Discover the fascination of medieval music in its many forms!
