This file loads to the music of Guillaume Dufay, "Nuper rosarum flores." One translation of the Latin might be "a fresh garland of roses" reflecting the writing of this isarithmic motet for the dedication of a cathedral in Florence. Another, however, might be "a recent garland of roses" (including as a virtual garland) reflecting the enduring power of classical languages to transcend not only communication across space but also through time. One link of interest is: http://www.eeggs.com/items/37111.html ; another might be: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuper_rosarum_flores The background music for this page is a .midi file from: http://www.faeriekeeper.net/nuper.mid
The rose in the garland is a Tudor rose.
