Mediaeval Baebes - Salva Nos
"Yeaux! Check out the Bæbes! " Rock/pop buyers seeing this disc will probably be amused or intrigued; early music aficionados will likely assume the worst (Spice-Girls-do-Hildegard-with-a-backbeat). Neither need fear: the Mediæval Bæbes may cultivate an irreverent image, but they take their music seriously. Here they give us a selection of well-known (relatively speaking) medieval tunes--including some Christmas songs almost everyone will recognize--plus a few original melodies set to medieval lyrics. They've done a bit of arranging and added a period instrument here and there, but nothing more drastic than Munrow or Savall ever did. The Bæbes' voices aren't as polished as those of Sequentia or Anonymous 4, but their singing, plenty ethereal, has energy that A4 sometimes lacks. Specialists won't hate this record, but there's nothing to intimidate listeners unfamiliar with medieval music. It's really a crossover disc from both directions. --Matthew Westphal Binding Audio CD.
