Editorial Reviews :
Sumptuous, soothing, sensual--the heavenly voices of the Mediaeval Baebes continue to enchant the ears with the group's fourth album. These talented Baebes (and their main composer Katharine Blake) borrow lyrical material from medieval prose and find inspiration in medieval music. While most of The Rose comprises original pieces, it also includes a medieval English composition, a 14th century French traditional song, and an Italian lauda. The hypnotic, dulcet voices of this nine-piece collective are mesmerizing a cappella, especially with their fluency in multiple languages, but some of these songs feature accompaniment from strings, zither, recorder, acoustic guitar, percussion, and other instruments. The Mediaeval Bloakes Choir even turn in a supporting appearance on the sublime 'Dringo Bell.' Despite their name, the Mediaeval Baebes create timeless music that, for many listeners, may help fill in the gap left by the dearly departed Dead Can Dance.
Buyer Reviews :
As a huge fan of the Baebes I absolutely loved this cd. Their voices are wonderful together despite losing three members who left to cocentrate on other things. All the songs are great with I Am Eve, Slay Me Suddenly, and L'Amour De Moi being my favorites. This cd uses no modern instruments as Undrentide did so fans wanting music in true Baebes form should enjoy this very much. I can't wait to hear more from these talented women.
