Andreas Scholl (countertenor, baritone) Shield of Harmony Ensemble, Crawford Young (director) Few composers can have boasted quite such a colourful existence as the medieval poet and sometime diplomat Oswald von Wolkenstein. Having grown up in a Tyrolean castle, in a world recently ripped apart by the Black Death and immersed in religious and territorial conflict, Wolkenstein became something of a wandering knight with a complicated private life. If his travels greatly embellished the subject matter of his works they also enriched the musical form, as he incorporated French songs into the German style. A singer of warm humanity, Andreas Scholl's creamy and communicative countertenor voice has greatly endeared him to critics and public alike. This programme, the result of new research into von Wolkenstein, will feature previously unrecorded songs and instrumental arrangements. |

| |  | Jan DeGaetani - Early Music Recital
Jan DeGaetani (mezzo-soprano), Paul O'Dette (lute), Judith Davidoff (viola da gamba and vielle) and Philip West (shawms) Released for the first time ever, this concert recording of Jan DeGaetani showcases the legendary mezzo’s work in the field of early music- recorded in 1977, and the peak of her powers. It is a little known fact the DeGaetani’s career started as a performer of early music, so that this disc is a revelatory addition to her discography. The spectacular flexibility and purity of intonation that DeGaetani brought to so many contemporary scores serve her beautifully in this well-recorded document. Accompanied by the great lutenist Paul O’Dette, as well as viola da gamba player Judith Davidoff and a shawm player Philip West, this recital ranges from the Medieval music through the Renaissance, and includes music by John Dowland, Donato de Cascia, Hayne van Ghizeghem, Giulio Caccini, and Oswald von Wolkenstein. | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
