Blondel - Cover Story

Blondel Medieval & Renaissance wind band playing music from the 14th-16th centuries on shawms, bagpipes and recorders.

What makes a song leap across national boundaries and language barriers, slip from the secular to the ecclesiastic, and remain at the top of the charts for more than 70 years? We don’t have the formula, but we know why these pieces wedged themselves into the cultural background of medieval Europe. The music is fabulous.
