Works of Abelard and the Codex Las Huelgas. Emotionally powerful and moving music by Peter Abelard, the most celebrated teacher of his time. Also a remarkable composer, Abelard wrote hymns and laments (planctus), six of which survive and are recorded here. Four planctus from the important Codex Las Huelgas complete this recording.
