Album Cover
The Dufay Collective
Music For Alfonso The Wise

Album US 2005 on Harmonia Mundi label
Classical (Medieval)

This record features music from the times of the king Alfonso X The Learned (1252-1284), best known for the production of the Cantigas de Santa Maria (CSM). Despite the copious poetry from this time, no music survives to accompany it : existing melodies from period sources, especially the CSM, were employed to recreate a courtly context, as heard in the halls of Alphonso X. The sequence of seven Cantigas de Amigo is the only set of poems to have survived with music more or less intact. Recorded December 16-18, 2002 at Wathen Hall, St. Paul's School for Boys, Hammersmith, London ℗ © harmonia mundi usa Made in Germany First collaboration between The Dufay Collective and Harmonia Mundi. Digipak with 44 page booklet sticked inside, full details in english, french, spanish & german. Original lyrics with english, french & spanish translations.
