The Cantigas de Santa Maria, or â€œCanticles of Holy Maryâ€, is a collection of over 400 poems set to music. The text of the Cantigas is written in the medieval Galician-Portuguese language. The poems were collected during the reign of Alfonso X of Castile El Sabio (1221â€“1284) and are characterized by the fact that every one of them mentions the Virgin Mary (with over 300 being about miracles) and that every tenth poem in the collection is an actual hymn. Alfonso sent scribes throughout the region to collect these poems and thus it is not only one of the largest collections of monophonic songs from the Middle Ages it is also one of the first mass collections of living culture in history. Though all are attributed to Alfonso, it has been determined that much of the musical notation, scribing, and illumination was completed by artisans of his court.Â This arrangement FEATURES Full Score and Individual Parts for one cantiga as Interpreted by the Arranger from the Original Mensural Notation into a performance quality arrangement for SATB recorders.
