This is one of the most widely admired recordings of music of this era; people from all backgrounds seem to enjoy it. The first & last tracks are particularly impressive.The polyphonic style of the era was to place a theme (chant, in the case of liturgical settings) in the tenor (the lowest voice) in long notes, and then to add "decoration" in the upper voices. As such, the lines are not really independent, but are dominated rhythmically by "cells" given by the notes of the tenor. This is the typical organum. In the conductus (non-chant based), the two main lines are sometimes more independent melodically, but the rhythms are substantially similar. There is also a large body of monophonic conducti (organa are polyphonic, by definition; the monophonic version would be plainchant).

Birds on Fire - Jewish Music for Viols

25 tracks - MP3 192 Kbps - RAR 118Mb


The title of this recording is a quotation from Aaron Appelfeld’s 1939 novel Badenheim. The subtitle, “Jewish Music for Viols”, more accurately describes the contents: Fretwork have also recorded consort music by some of the Jewish composers at the Tudor court – the Bassanos and Lupos – along with two contemporaries in Holland, Philip van Wilder and Leonara Duarte, illustrating the extent to which they set aside the declamatory music of their forefathers in favour of the imitative polyphonic style prevailing in Northern Europe. Even the Venetian “Ebreo” Salamone Rossi borrowed from the Latin motet for his 1622 Songs of Solomon, stilo antico settings with Hebrew texts sung here by Jeremy Avis.
If you’re seeking the exotic, listen to tracks 1, 13 and 24. Orlando Gough, best known for his theatre music, composed Birds on Fire in 1997. This is demanding, wonderfully offbeat music inspired by Ashkenazi Klezmers (more cabaret than camera), which Fretwork brings off with a panache that astonishes and delights. Importantly, it demonstrates the extent to which the viol consort has been circumscribed by its historic – largely amateur – repertoire and suggests that it is capable of far more. Each of the three Gough pieces begins with eerie sounds and is characterised by a kaleidoscope of syncopated ostinati, droll pizzicato asides and sinewy, modal themes conveyed in parallel octaves. You’ll swear you can hear an organ, accordion, clarinet and a saxophone, but you don’t. Fascinating, liberating music!

Concentus Musicus Wien - A Celebration

10 CD - MP3 192 Kbps - 15 ZIP (908Mb)


Back in the '60 there was a revolution in progress on the subject of how Baroque music should be played. "Have we all been barking up the wrong tree?" a rather baffled critic asked in 1967 on the occasion of a debate on the subject of performance practice. The fact of the matter was that an obscure Viennese ensemble had begun to spark off some rather heated discussions and that an argumentative and philosophically-minded cellist with a defiant Hadsburg lip ensured its disticntive and controversial image. The pugnacious Austrian was as vehemently opposed to Karl Richter's popular and "Romantic" way of playing Bach as he was to the views of some of his contemporaries, whose attempts to reproduce "authentic" sonorities were, he thought, far too academic.(...)
