Notes & Reviews:

Ever since antiquity, the shores of the Mediterranean have assembled men and women who share a cultural heritage with multiple resonances. These pieces say something about their loves, their faith, their wisdom, and their appetite for life. Brigitte Lesne, well-known to lovers of medieval music, and Carlo Rizzo, a specialist in the traditional songs of the Italian peninsula, create contrasts enhanced by the use of early instruments as well as those associated with the traditional repertory to produce a lively, colorful whole that sets the imagination vibrating.
