Notes & Reviews:

"...No group has done more to create a sound world for Spanish music of this period than Hesperion XX, and, while both of these CDs, reissued under the heading "Music for the Spanish Kings", are classic exambles of their colourfully instrumented and imaginative interpretations, they also represent the range of the degrees of musical 'otherness' that their performances can convey... [you'll] undoubtedly be taken with their freshness and originality." -Gramophone
