Winter Corina Marti

Artists: Corina Marti - Recorder Marie Nishiyama - Harp Roger Helou - Organ.

The major part of the unique and rare repertoire presented on this album is culled from three important manuscripts, all copied in the second half of the fifteenth century: the Buxheim organ book (Bux, ca. 1470), the Lochamer song book (Loch, ca. 1460), and the Glogauer partbooks. All three of the books are treasure troves of delightful and unexpected discoveries. Among the composers presented in the French section of this recording are some of the most eminent and well-known musicians of the fifteenth century: Guillaume Du Fay, Gilles Binchois, Antoine Busnois.
