This volume
focuses on the medieval
period from approximately
the sixth to fifteenth
centuries. The music of
this era was
traditionally performed
as plainchant (sacred) or
monophony (secular), that
is, as a vocal melody,
here reserved for the
soprano recorder. Seeking
to emulate medieval
performance practice, the
20 tunes in this
collection are
accompanied by a single,
drone-like power or
5-chord to be played on a
modern-day stringed
instrument such as
guitar, mandolin or
banjo. These simple
troubadour songs are
ideal for beginners and
experienced players
alike, who want to be
transported back in time,
immersed in a bygone era
of music. .
