AK051 MUSIC FROM THE PAST : MEDIEVAL TO BAROQUE
A unique collection of beautifully recorded performances of early and
baroque music. Traditional historical instruments and arrangements have
been used to record a wide repertoire of period music. No synthesisers
or samplers were used in these recordings. The recordings feature the
talents of musicians with a real love and understanding of historical
music. This is a first in Copyright Free Music. Most of the pieces are
little known so avoiding the mental associations your viewer may have
when using well known classical scores. This CD is perfect for features
of a historical nature, visits to country gardens and houses, country
dances/fairs, countryside, palatial or regal surroundings and local
history projects.
