English Songs of the Middle Ages

Descripción
Tienda If you’re looking for medieval songs in English, you’ll find a disappointing number of surviving manuscripts–not even enough to make up a Top 40. Among the 20 or so pieces that remain are tantalizing hints at the richness and attractiveness of this long-vanished body of repertoire. The singers and instrumentalists of the early music group Sequentia are happy to tantalize us, and these 13 songs–including the classic “Bryd one brere” (Bird on briar), the familiar carol “Edi be thu, heven-queene,” and several enticing instrumental numbers that sound almost like Scottish reels–remind us that not all medieval music resided in cloisters and cathedrals. –David Vernier
