Best version of "Cantiga 166" I have ever heard. Alfonso X would be proud.

Afonso X is interciding for us in Heaven along our Lord Jesus Christ the King of Kings and Lord of Lords

I know Cantiga's version for years and it was always my favorite rendition of this beautiful tune. I prefer this slower tempo. Some our local medieval bands play "Como podem" like rock'n roll which is bad. And I must say that Cantiga was for me fantastic source of inspiration how to make my music and of course source of big joy. Fantastic musicians.

A bit cheerful for a snake cult, but still a good version.

Muito bom! This style is becoming more and more famous nowadays! And you are making a graet job on it. Go ahead! Congratulations from Brazil.

[@musicgrrl11]

Beautiful. Such a lovely build!

[@TokixWartooth]

Thought to have been composed around 1280, it's beautiful. 737 years later, music isn't quite as melodious as this.

[@debj5186]

You're the best! I have been a fan of Martha GAY's groups since first hearing them at the Renaissance Festival near Magnolia, TX, from the beginning of that Festival They introduced me to Celtic music along with the Chieftains so long ago.

[@GaryGrzybek]

That was beautiful!

[@DacianFalx77]

I love this particular cantiga... always have. Probably the one I listen to the most in the off-season. Looking good, all of you... I look forward to seeing you again at Sterling this season... and Martha? If you need me to carry your harp again this season, I'd be happy to... schedule permitting. Geoff

Linda canción española

[@nurywais]

Es un poco extraño que haya un charango, pero la verdad que queda bien. Y por el asunto de los instrumentos originales que comentaba jewish1972, pues que a falta de los originales, buenos son los "descendientes", ¿no? :-)

[@kurroUR]

EVROPA!

dobre to macie

[@jstrachan08]

where can i download this exact piece of music?

[@ArtemisDalmasca]

Beautiful version of this song. I would kinda like to hear the beat sped up just a bit, to make it more of a 'get up and dance' type song. I love this, don't get me wrong, I just heard it performed on the tudors and the sped up beat had that 'must dance' effect to it

[@xRuffianx]

Kuris Leitter its not a dance song. Really dumb comment and idea

[@kitsiewr]

So so love hearing these guys at faire NOT doing the edgy - rock version of old music just to appease modern ears. This is perfect!

[@amisha25211]

@@xRuffianx no it's not a dumb comment if u listen to a slightly sped up version...it energises you with it's rhythm and compels u to dance and is an amazing beautiful version equal as the slow one.

[@GladRags]

@@xRuffianx I bet you when the inventor of the wheel was making the prototype, some amazing person like yourself told him that it's a dumb idea, and we should keep using our feet.
