Announcement    We are Trouvere - a duo of medieval minstrels based in North Yorkshire. We devote our time to researching, practicing and recording medieval music. We have over 50 medieval instruments in our collection and these can be heard on our various recordings. We also run the UK’s only festival of medieval music - Medieval Music in the Dales.

We produce sheet music editions of medieval music, as we have found that medieval music in modern notation is very difficult to find - especially if you do not know where to look. So far, we have produced five books of medieval music in notation with supporting commentary and, where appropriate, full lyrics and translations. These make perfect performing editions.

We have also produced a tunebook (Medieval Music in the Dales - Tunebook One) featuring twenty great medieval melodies perfect for playing on a variety of period and modern instruments - excellent for beginners.

Our next project is to produce a new Tunebook for Medieval Music in the Dales. This Tunebook (Tunebook Two) will feature 20 tunes all from the 15th century to match the theme of this year's festival. There will also be a festival souvenir CD that will include music from all of our main performers at this years event. It will be a very fine thing!
