A musical video book. A screen adaptation of manuscript ’Fr. 146’ at the Bibliothèque Nationale of France.
A work devised, written and produced at home by de la Casinière on her personal computer. In its sumptuous pages, ‘Le Roman de Fauvel’, a large and handsome early 14th century book, brings together the verses of a satirical poem, the scores of musical pieces to be sung, and the colourful miniature illustrations of a tale: precisely the ingredients required to transpose an illuminated mediaeval manuscript into a multimedia digital work.
