#davidmunrow — Public Fediverse posts

The recent mention of Guillaume de Machaut by @scholar_farmer in her new #introduction reminded me of this album recorded by David Munrow and The Early Music Consort of London in the seventies:

I'm neither #musicologist nor #medievalist, but have enjoyed this music for decades.

In addition, I still mourn the untimely death of David Munrow.

The piece dates from around the first decade of the 14th century.

I first heard this recording when I was about fifteen and have loved it ever since.

David Munrow did so much for early music before his untimely death.
