The early medieval music of the British Isles is shrouded in the proverbial mists of time. More deeply, even, than the music of Western Europe. This is due in part to the cultural and linguistic upheaval of the Norman Conquest of 1066, and the widespread destruction of artifacts wreaked during the Suppression of the Monasteries of 1536-1541. Medieval Britain was a cultural and linguistic crossroads, where the Norse of the Danelaw and the Anglo-Saxon of Wessex, Mercia, and Northumberland coexisted with the Venerable Bede's Latin, and all three blended with Norman French to create Middle English. This program brings together music from a variety of sources to tell the story of this tumultuous world. The earliest known poem in the Anglo-Saxon language, a song attributed to the legendary Viking king Ragnar Loðbrok, music from the medieval cathedrals of Dublin and Glasgow, polyphony from Orkney Islands, and one of the first Middle English love songs.

Hi Brian - I've been going through your videos and I love the sound. I was wondering what sources you use to replicate the various singing styles people would have employed in Anglo-Saxon times. Are there contemporary treatises or descriptions available? Thanks. Keep it up!
Hey, how do we access the download after purchase?
It will be sent via Dropbox as soon as I see confirmation.
The thumbnail are Crwth"s (I beleive that's what they are called) it's a Brythonic (Welsh) instrument found at Sutton Hoo. Oh yeah, that was British not Saxon.
Metal bolts used in the Boat, not Wooden Dowls.
The Latin insription on the spoons, which also had Christian symbolism (English wouldnt be Christian for a while after it was created).
The Musical instrument as I mentioned.
The Helmet which has a Star of David and a very Brythonic looking mustache.
The story of gilgamesh on the purse of which the the Saxons weren't Aware of.
Shall I continue?
