Mediaeval Baebes - Worldes Blysse
Following on from the success of Salva Nos, the Baebes. return with their second opus. Even more teasingly packaged than. previously (the artwork features the Baebes glowering enticingly through. swathes of pre-Raphaelite drapery), Worldes Blysse contains the. same mix of settings of mediaeval lyrics and literature in the reconstructed style of the fifteenth century as before, plus a couple of rediscovered originals. As with Salva Nos, the Baebes are (not yet) a band of Emma Kirkbys, nor are they the suggestive, siren-esque travelling players their image might suggest. Again, almost overly perfect performance and recording, somewhat irrationally detract from. any (unprovable) notions of authenticity, although thankfully Salva. Nos's over-bearing reverberating acoustic (an electronic addition, one suspects) is largely absent. Indeed, Worldes Blysse is a much more relaxed, fun and natural sounding collection, none more so in the two standout tracks: "Passing Thus Alone"--an elegantly simple unadorned. solo beautifully sung by Karen Lupton--and the sprightly yet stately courtly instrumental of "La Volta". --Robert Heller Binding Audio CD.
