Mediaeval monody and polyphony for a monastery of nuns (s. XII-s. XIV). The Huelgas Codex is the best-known book of liturgy and music of the Spanish Middle Ages and a pre-eminent document on the prominent role played by women at this monastery in Burgos. The intrinsic beauty of the compositions is enhanced by a referential performance by Carles Magraner and his ensemble, featuring four female voices and a harp.
