Madre de Deus - Tune from the Cantigas de Santa Maria with Octave

[scifi]

A pretty grooving and historically highly incorrect interpretation of the song "Madre de Deus" from the Cantigas de Santa Maria (13th century Spanish).

Played on an Oakwood Octave Mandolin (ADAD), Percussion and Hurdy Gurdy.

Hope you like it :-)

Beautiful rendition of this tune! I love the Cantigas, but I'm not familiar with that one.

Thank you Mike :-)
I think I would play it rather slow if I should sing the lyrics over the tune and it would sound very different.

Very nice!

The clip didn't embed correctly, because the syntax for the "YOUTUBE" tags is a bit different -- I've corrected it and it should display now.

I know this tune from an equally rocking version by Malleus, but I didn't know it came from the Cantigas. Well played!
