The career of Guillaume Dufay - figurehead of Burgundian polyphony - begins in Italy. He seems to have particularly strong ties with Florence and her finest artists. Graindelavoix draws inspiration from this chapter in Dufay's career in order to breathe new life into his dance-like oeuvre. Dufay's pièce de résistance is of course included: Nuper rosarum flores, the motet used for the dedication of the cathedral of Florence.
