5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful voices bring medieval music to the modern world, February 8, 2002
By A Customer
As an extensive collector of medieval music I have listened to many cds that present 12th century music. Sequentia is one of the best performance groups of this type of music. Their harmonies are clear and crisp. The music reaches out from the dark ages and touches the modern listner with its beauty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, December 31, 1998
By A Customer
This cd is an amazing journey into medieval choral music. Sequentia is true to the music, and performs it beautifully. There is a depth to this cd, and with every new listen there's more to hear.
