Containing mostly secular works by Francesco Landini (c.1325-1397), the CD places the famous "blind organist of San Lorenzo, Florence" in the context of his contemporary composers, demonstrating him to be the supreme master of his art. Also on the disc are "Laude" - monophonic Italian religious songs - adapted from Landini's compositions and providing an insight into the thin division in medieval times between spiritual and worldly life. For this CD Gothic Voices is joined once more by the renowned medieval harpist Andrew Lawrence-King.
