Blue Heron serves savory sounds with 14th C. Salmagundi
Blue Heron performs to their usual high standards. The ensemble has an exceptionally clear, pristine sound that serves the music well.

Jean Maillard - A Renaissance Rediscovery
This is a disc that should be in the collection of anyone who loves Renaissance sacred music. Maillard may be the link between Des Pres and Palestrina, but he has a style all his own.
Nine Notes that Shook the World
Not that this is background music by any means. McFarlane and Rosenfeld present a first-rate program of Renaissance and Baroque music that draws the listener in.
