in what age this music is composed?

@nosorog91

As soon as this music calls "la music a la Cour de Charle Quint" it must be written during Holy Roman Emperor Charles V reigning, i.e. 1500-1558

I've always admired Mr. José Miguel Moreno's playing.

But they sing in Spanish. Charles was the fifth Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire with that name, but the first King of Spain to carry it. Sadly, many people in Spain wrongly call him "Carlos V". Maybe the title of the album is not completely accurate.

Great performing. Love the way the two voices melt, and the instrumental part too.

And, completely off topic: This girl is a beauty. :)

so many exquisite instruments. What is the first one to the right side of the cello? Is it a lyra viol?
