After ten years of research in a multitude of libraries worldwide, Katarina Livljani? and the ensemble Dialogos, faithfull to their exploratory and fearless spirit, bring yet another surprise from the less known medieval lands. It is the incredible story of saints Barlaam and Josaphat, a christianized version of Buddha's life, which crossed over at least four religions and was transmitted through almost all the medieval languages. Powerful songs incarnated by voice and instruments, sing the legend about the king's son, prince Josaphat, who leaves the noisy world of opulence to search for inner peace - songs which follow the path of his story from one medieval language to another, from Greek, Latin to old Croatian, Italian, Church Slavonic. This project is a unique new experience: a multimedia ebook, in French and English, is included in this CD. It tells the story of Barlaam \u0026amp; Josaphat and leads the listener\/reader through one of the most intriguing labyrinths of the medieval world. Through a rich and original video, audio and iconographic material, it opens the doors into the artistic creative process which transformed a medieval legend into a music performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31643910340705,"sku":"3760195734582","price":13.04,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/products\/stand_3131150_jpg.jpg?v=1705468559","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/3760195734582-barlaam-josaphat-various","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
