Christmas in Gallia

It is wonderful that in the XXI century we can be able to listen to music from 1200-1600. November 16, 2008

disappointing

the music on the "noel, Noel!: Noels Francais/French Christmas Music (1200-1600) was not adequately represented in the sample online - much more discordant that I wished ; I also missed the info that it was ancient/pre-classical music January 2, 2008

refreshingly traditional

If you are as tired as I am of canned Christmas muzak, you will find this to be refreshing, beautiful, and uplifting for the season of Christ's birth. November 10, 2006

Beautiful

I was looking for something different from all the popular American Chirstmas music that has been re-done so many times. Here is a collection that satisfied me, and will delight both Franco-phones and Anglo-phones (English speakers) Some of the pieces are very chant like, but others are lively songs with lots of energy. Especially notable are tracks # 18, Or vous trémoussez, pasteurs de Judée, # 13, Noe, Noe, and my personal favorite, # 27, O l'heureuse journée. You likely will not recognize any of the tunes, so it may take a bit for this album to sound like Christmas, but it quickly did for me. The ancient instruments employed also give the music a unique sound that is really neat. This is a CD worth purchasing December 21, 2001

This is excellent work

I am a musician and a medieval history buff, and first heard the Beauvais segments of this recording over the car radio, as I parked intending to do some Christmas shopping. I could not leave the car until the last note was sung and immediately began a search for the recording. The music is so...right, like a little time trip, haunting, triggering the imagination.
