Music reviews of Lost Songs of a Rhineland Harper [Hybrid SACD]
Music Review: A Complete Work of Art...
Rating: 5 Stars
I never realized I liked Sequentia until I heard this CD. I once borrowed their other CD's from a friend, which succeeded in putting me asleep. But don't miss this one! The booklet gives the history of each song (very intriguing) plus the words in latin and english. The arrangements are beautiful, sometimes ecstatic, and will whisk you away to another, simpler world. Perfect for a relaxing bath or an in-depth study of ancient music. The songs are divided into three sections, first "songs of the harp," second "the image of dawn" and third "desire and seduction." My favorites are the song about swans played through an actual swan's bone and "sauvissima nunna" - an amorous dialogue between a seducer and a nun. There is a complete English translation for each song that makes you realize how poetic the words really are. Not the CD to play in the background (it will get monotonous) but to listen to with rapt attention. With this CD, listening is a rewarding experience!
