The Troubadour Thread.

[prémont]

Very lovely singing in Girault de Bornelh's Reis Glorio, from Zuchetti's La Troba. The poem of this song is very fine I think, and there are a few excellent versions - I remember Paul Hillier on Hyperion (the one from ECM to new age hippy for me.) But really look at the poem and tell me who should be singing it, a man or a woman. When I read it, I assumed the poem's voice was a woman's lover.

Even if she is a woman - albeit a somewhat androgyne one as to voice - the recording of Andrea von Ramm (with Studio der frühen Musik) has so far been the one to impress me the most.

There's something a bit too jaunty about it for me, though I like Andrea von Ramm's style always.

Ensemble Super Librum is good, with a little organ.  Very noble, introspective and contrapuntal arrangement.

I never heard it in that way.

It's OOP, as far as I can see.

I'll put it on symphony share, along with some other things, later.

That would be kind of you
