 “The fiddle with its sweet melodies, sometimes dreamy, sometimes joyful, sweet notes, delightful, clear, well turned. The listeners rejoice and make merry.” Arcipreste de Hita, ca. 1330
 Although based on the maximum historical and musicological research, this programme is not intended to be either a hypothetical historical reconstruction of a concert of that time or a musicological study of facts that cannot be known with absolute certainty.
 What is offered here is an attempt - inspired by the styles corresponding to each of the cultures concerned - to highlight changes to the sound of the bow over time. Above all, this programme is a tribute to all the jongleurs and poet-musicians who were convinced that through music the soul could be moved to boldness and valour, magnanimity and generosity - all qualities that dignify the good governance of peoples.
