    That was great! I love it! So beautiful. The octave mandolin sounds great and sets a wonderful mood for the song.

    Interesting, different and very enjoyable. Great blend of instruments and voice.

    There's nothing like Middle High German to build a time machine.

    ...not that you'd want to use it - the mere microbiology of the era could kill you.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this and then went on to additional youtube videos of your group. Great music. I wish you were nearby so I could hear you play live. This music really appeals to me. Thanks for sharing it.

    That was a treat. Transporting. Amazing how music like this can capture the mood of medieval times so well that that time can seem somehow familiar and knowable for a short while.

    I must get the old recorder back out - such an underrated instrument, and ideal for this kind of music.
