Series about and with Catalan gambist and conductor Jordi Savall. For the second time in a row, we play recordings from the CD box which Savall released on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of La Capella Reial de Catalunya in 2007.
On these CDs there are villancicos and ensaladas from late 15th-century and early 16th-century Spain.
In the previous century, Savall pioneered in this field, and he went back to it on this well documented release.
