Todos los bienes

This is track 26, described as "Juan del Encina (1469-1529?): Todos los bienes from the Joculatores Upsalienses album, Antik Musik Pa Wik.

The book describes it as such: Todos los bienes is a villancico with a form ABBABBA. The text describes in various ways how everything material exists only a short while before vanishing. That which remains is fame and glory. The voice is accompanied by lute, fidel, recorder, dulcian, and percussion. As with the following two pieces [in the album] it is taken from the Cancioneri musical de palacio from ca. 1500

FALALALAN!!

These guys (and girls) are definitely the 'big band sound' of early music; Someone more learned than me noted their use of loud and soft instruments in the same song may not be historically correct...don't know. But I find them a very musical group that brings all the material they do alive.

Check the slower version. Simply haunting!

For similar vocal style see: Jantina Norman

Beautiful theme... Remember it from playing Europa Universalis and has been looking it a long time.

I would also recommend Falalalan from the same group.

I like EU2 as well! And particularly the spanish tracks!

The song reflects Spains dominant position in the world at the time. A new world beckoned, fame and glory was there for the taking to all who wished to seek it! Thus the song is vibrant and full of optimism!

¡Los años que estuve tratando de encontrar esta versión de "Todos los bienes del mundo"!

Gracias!

You are not. EU2 FTW!

I'm not the only Europa Universalis fan here no?
