Our Take

Ah, the Orlando Consort - masters of medieval music and kings of the minstrel lifestyle. Their latest offering, Extempore, is a delightful romp through the annals of time, filled with soaring vocals and enchanting harmonies that will transport you back to a time when knights were bold, damsels were distressed, and lutes were the instrument du jour.

From the haunting strains of "Sumer is icumen in" to the rollicking jig of "Laude novella," the Orlando Consort showcases their incredible range and versatility, weaving a tapestry of sound that is equal parts sublime and silly. The juxtaposition of sacred and secular music creates a dynamic listening experience that is both thought-provoking and toe-tapping.

But what truly sets Extempore apart is the group's undeniable chemistry and infectious joy for their craft. It's clear that these four lads have a passion for medieval music that borders on obsession, and their energy is palpable in every note they sing.

Whether you're a seasoned aficionado of early music or a newcomer looking to expand your sonic horizons, Extempore is a must-listen. So grab your goblet of mead, don your finest tunic, and prepare to be transported to a world where troubadours ruled the land and Gregorian chants were all the rage. The Orlando Consort may be ancient, but their music is as fresh and vibrant as ever. Cheers to that, my medieval music-loving comrades.
