Don’t know whether to laugh or be depressed—think I’ll choose laughter!
Hope all is well with you. Don’t think I thanked you for the 21st Century Consort CD you sent me several weeks back! The Sacred Songs and Meditations really work beautifully as a set! I love the way you meld the modern and ancient instruments together, and it’s lovely to hear each of the original chants performed (wonderfully) before your “reimaginings” of them. I particularly enjoyed the Corde Natus Ex Parentis, with the mensuration canon. A very haunting set of pieces, and a very haunting disc all the way around.
