"Who would have thought that the splendidly artful music of the 14th century could be so humane and accessible?" - San Francisco Classical Voice

Step into a world of music, theater, desire, and medieval courtly love with The Machaut Project: Devotion & Desire, a visually stunning, fully-staged experience from Chanticleer and acclaimed opera director Elkhanah Pulitzer. 

A composer, poet, and master of self-invention, Machaut stood at the threshold of modern music, shaping sound into something enduring. In this staging, Chanticleer and Pulitzer draw audiences into a realm of devotion and desire, where courtly love becomes a meditation on the human heart. Love, Faith, and Hope emerge not as abstractions but as vivid, living forces. Through elegant restraint and ritualized gesture, the singers reveal both the beauty of medieval courtship and the vulnerability beneath it—the universal longing to be seen, understood, and loved without disguise.
