"A Spanish Nativity": Lieder aus dem Goldenen Zeitalter von Spanien

Works of Abelard and the Codex Las Huelgas.
Emotionally powerful and moving music by Peter Abelard, the most celebrated teacher of his time. Also a remarkable composer, Abelard wrote hymns and laments (planctus), six of which survive and are recorded here. Four planctus from the important Codex Las Huelgas complete this recording.
