Vox Iberica II: Codex Las Huelgas - Music from the royal convent of Las Huelgas de Burgos (1989)

1    Maria, virgo virginum
2    Ex illustri nata prosapia
3    Audi, pontus; audi, tellus
4    Mundi dolens de iactura
5    Ave, Maria, gracia plena
6    O plena gracia
7    Virgo sidus aureum
8    Catholicorum concio
9    Quis dabit capiti meo aquam
10    O monialis concio burgensis
11    Resurgentis Domini
12    Rex obiit et labitur Castelle gloria
13    Plange, castella misera
14    Benedicamus Domino cum cantico
15    Stabat iuxta Christi crucem
16    Benedicamus virgini matri
17    Qui nos fecit ex nichilo
18    Verbum patris hodie
19    Benedicamus / Hic est enim precursor
20    Salve regina glorie
21    Casta catholica / Da, dulcis domina
22    In hoc festo gratissimo
23    Psallat chorus in novo carmina / Eximie pater egregie / Aptatur
24    O, plangant nostri prelati
25    Fa fa mi fa mi re / Ut re mi ut re mi
26    O gloriosa Dei genitrix

In this second volume of Sequentia’s 3-part series Vox Iberica, the ensemble’s women’s and men’s vocal ensembles – 13 singers – join forces to present many of the riches of Spain’s most important musical manuscript from a monastic environment (where both women and men sang): the Codex Las Huelgas from Burgos. This source contains all manner of liturgical and paraliturgical song, sung in Latin, from a variety of French and also Spanish origins, including conductus, motet, prosa, organum, planctus (death laments for Spanish kings, and even one for an abbess of Burgos), in one, two and also three voices.
