Bryars, Gavin - Laude Cortonese Vol. 2

'Laude' were short mediaeval devotional songs to the Virgin Mary, and Gavin Bryars has kept to the pure, lyrical style of the originals. Following the successful publication of Bryars' first volume of laude which singers around the world have added to their repertoire, this second volume for various combinations of a cappella voices provides new opportunities for performers and audiences to experience these devastatingly beautiful works.
