4.0 out of 5 stars Music from 15th Century Germany, June 8, 2005

This review is from: Music from the Time of Tilman Riemenschneider (Audio CD)

Some of this music is familiar - in fact six tracks are licensed - from a budget CPO disc by the Hedos ensemble. Though the emphasis here is more on Germany not so much the whole of Europe. I hadn't heard Il Curioso before but they strike me as similar to the Unicorn Ensemble also found on Naxos.

There are two similarly titled CDs

8.557138 Music from the Time of Tillman Riemenscheider
8.558145 ART AND MUSIC - Riemenscheider Music of His Time

The latter disc has an extra four tracks [30]-[33] sampled from relevant releases by the Oxford Camerata. It also has a chronology of Riemenscheider's life and photos of some of his sculptures. Unfortunately it has no sung texts. I cannot comment on whether 8.557138 also has no sung texts as I haven't seen it.
