An educational programme featuring early music.
The world of Codices, episode 1.

Today, we start a three-part series about Codices. Codices is the plural of Codex, a bound book from the Middle Ages. In  this hour, you can listen to music from the Engelberg 314 Codex, a music manuscript from the Benedictine abbey of Engelberg in Switzerland. It is one of the most important late-medieval liturgical manuscripts.
The other Codex you can listen to is the Caioni Codex, a musical portrait of a Transylvanian wedding day. It is the personal manuscript of organist Johannes Caioni, who was born in Romania in 1629.

1. Herz und Sinne muege dich
