  • "According to her vida, she was married to Guilhem de Poitiers, Count of Viennois, but was in love with and sang about Raimbaut of Orange." I love that woman! :-))))))

  • Yes indeed. 30 years ago the world was just learning to perform such music all over again. This is one of those recordings that helped us along to where we are now and for that it is very appreciated and valuable.

  • Delightful

  • @MysticRonin101 Actually, it also sounds like classical Indian music too.

  • It sounds Middle Eastern or Mediterranean like something Lebanese, Syrian or Greek.

  • This music heals and saves the soul ...

  • Absolutely beautiful!

  • Extraña y bella canción! Por ritmo, estructura y melodía más "vanguardista" que todo o casi todo lo que se oye por la radio. Me gusta! =)

  • Oh! The influence of the Moors in Europe clearly evident here!

  • Just gorgeous.

  • That's the « fin amor » ! ;)

    All the philosophy of the medieval occitan civilization ! :D
