New settings of renaissance poems. In 1998, the members of Virelai conceived the idea of commissioning a series of new settings of renaissance love poems. Renaissance words, renaissance instruments, contemporary settings: this project ties together the worlds of early and contemporary music, and raises many interesting questions about composition, performance, text setting, the use of early instruments for new music and the relationship of old to new generally. Riverrun is very excited to release this CD, the result of four years labour of love.
