about

14th century European music, interpreted by harpsichordist and organist Ilze Bertrand, playing from sheet music written in the 15th century from the Codex Faenza collection (Biblioteca Comunale Manfrediana di Faenza).

Performed on a medieval clavisimbalum built by master harpsichord builder Kaspars Putrins, based on sketches from the 15th century.

This album was recorded live direct to analog tape using a Studer B 67 1/4” two-track tape recorder without any editing or overdubbing. Vinyl lacquers were cut directly from master tapes on a Neumann VMS70 cutting lathe using a Neumann SX74 cutting head.
