Our Take

The Orlando Consort's latest offering, Guillaume de Machaut: The Single Rose, is like getting a musical love letter from the 14th century. This album transports you back in time with its enchanting harmonies and haunting melodies, taking you on a journey through Machaut's poetic world.

From the moment you press play, you are greeted with intricate vocal arrangements that are as delicate as a rose petal. The Orlando Consort's voices blend together seamlessly, creating a rich tapestry of sound that feels like being wrapped in a warm hug.

The standout track on the album has to be "Rose, liz, printemps, verdure," a mesmerising ode to nature that will leave you feeling like you're frolicking through a blooming garden. The Consort's impeccable phrasing and dynamics bring the lyrics to life, painting a vivid picture of springtime in full bloom.

While some may find the medieval melodies a bit too niche for their liking, true music aficionados will appreciate the sheer artistry and skill on display. Guillaume de Machaut: The Single Rose is a true testament to the timeless beauty of early choral music, and a must-listen for anyone looking to expand their musical horizons. So light some candles, pour yourself a goblet of mead, and let the Orlando Consort serenade you into a state of pure medieval bliss. Medieval times have never sounded so good.
