About This Song
About "Adam de la Halle: J'os bien a m'amie parler" by James Bowman
A medieval trouvère's courtly plea, Bowman's countertenor hovers like a moth at a candle—delicate, deliberate, aching with the risk of speech. The melody's gentle sway belies the anxious flutter beneath: desire held in check, a whispered confidence that might undo him.
