Available at:
After three very-well received recordings - "Words of the Angel," "Soir, dit-elle" and "Stella Maris" - combining medieval sacred music and contemporary composition, a strikingly different project from the Trio Mediaeval.

For the sources that Trio Mediaeval explore here are the same sources that have inspired many Nordic jazz improvisers...
