The Renaissance Players – Pillar of Wisdom (Cantigas de Santa Maria IV)
The call of the Middle Ages rings forth in time from the Pillar of Wisdom, the fourth in the Cantigas de Santa Maria collection, performed with such historical care by Winsome Evans and The Renaissance Players.
Voices of the past sing tales of a medieval court, religion and acceptance, the listener hears them through exotic instruments of the middle east and is transported there with the first few tones.
An hour in this land, both far in distance and in time is not enough, but the listener may visit whenever they like, I certainly will. (SP)
