Notes & Reviews:

While this recording is made up of many contrasting styles (Spanish Renaissance, plainchant, secular/folk melodies, Italian, etc.) it extols the virtues of various creatures of flight and the harmony of the spheres. The Rose Ensemble is a daring and inventive vocal ensemble dedicated to performing and preserving ancient music and honoring history, world cultures and religions.
