CHAUVEAU, SYLVAIN - ECHOES OF HARMONY - EARLY MUSIC REWORKED (CD)

"CD digipack + 12 page booklet. All pieces of the Renaissance Repertoire come from Cancionero de Colombina (around 1470) or Cancionero de Palacio (around 1510). Both sources are well known for their typical spanish repertoire of this period. Electronic music Artist Sylvain Chauveau did new versions of several tracks and added also some drones to the programme. Daniel Manhart did the compilation and the additional sounddesign and mixing. All pieces of this CD are hardly ever performed or recorded - a fine, sensitive, interesting crossover between Early Music and Contemporary Electronic music with a repertoire mostly unknown."
