not much anyways. In the past there was not much time for leisure or money for patronising arts, so most people were farmers, members of the clergy or knights.
@@tomasbeltran04050 Art and music are integral to culture and are so pivotal to the human experience they predate agriculture. People actually had a lot of downtime (yes, peasant's too) on the off season and community life would certainly include music and dance in almost any medieval community. Art was different then, but there was art!
In all seriousness - we're actually blessed to be able to listen to whatever music we want whenever we feel like it these days. Have you ever thought about the fact that most people back in the middle ages could only listen to music on some special occasion or at random when they were lucky enough to come across it? Pretty mind-blowing.
@Alejandra Serena A bit glorifying but for the most part true. People sang often when working and (just like today) musicians could be found in urban marketplaces, playing an instrument for gratuities. Singing was really a part of life. Whether singing hymns at mass, while working the fields, at sea or even at war. People filled the silence and monotony of life with stories and song. But if we're honest (and historically accurate), life was hard and very boring for the average person in those days. Also, many people were alcoholics as the most consumed beverage (for thousands of years) was any form of beer or alcoholic brew. Even children drank alcohol. They drank alcohol more often than water because it was thought to be safer to drink than water. So yeah, music wasn't hard to come by and those with extraordinary talent, intellect or wealth were able to contemplate, tinker and philosophize, which brought about revolutionary ideas that gave birth to the renaissance but your average person toiled away and often lived a short, booze-filled and boring life. All that aside, I have to admit that some beautiful art and music did arise from those times.
@@helend7542 It depends. Some people had access to clean drinking water, some people didn't. If you didn't, you drank alcoholic beverages. If you did, you drank the clean water. The big thing is that alcoholic beverages keep far better than water, especially on long trips.
well, singing exists, as well as hand percussion. music was a big part of culture, taverns, inns, outhouses etc. all often had bands. choirs were a big part of culture too, especially bc of the church. you’d hear singing, humming n hand percussion a lot probably!
So much traditional music came from this . I do know what you mean as the feeling takes us all back to days beyond our physical self. My point is though about traditional music is the first song could easily be Irish trad.
I think of playing old D&D back in high school. Me and my companions riding our horses back into town selling our rewards after some dungeon adventure and searching for the next one.....🐎⚔

I was taught in college history courses that the term "Dark Ages" was a myth. Medieval culture was lively and vibrant, well worth studying. The wealth of Medieval music that has been rediscovered should prove this is true to any and all. Much of what is known about Medieval and Renaissance music has been rediscovered since 1950. Thank heavens for it! Thank you for running this music, and feel free to play more.
We all have been served and massively lied, thats why we have this disgraceful and non sense narrative of modern day countries, all based in an inexistent and fictional mythology, like the spanish empire and their felipist castilian language, or the french empire to name a few examples.
Dark ages were after the fall of the Roman Empire. More like 500 to 1000. The Renaissance was about 1450-1650. So the music played here is from the Medieval Period, 1000-1450, which is not dark ages. Dark ages aren't a myth. So much was lost after the fall of the Roman Empire. Nothing was gained for 500 years after it fell. Then it took another 1000 years or so to get back to a standard of life comparable to the average Roman Citizen.
Listening to that medieval playlist, while going on a medieval fair in Avignon. The city of Popes. (Sept 2023). Centuries years after, we still enjoy those ancient times and songs.
I studied and performed ancient music for many years, I performed mostly at Renaissance Fairs; although I once performed in in an orchestra for a medieval litturgical opera. Many thanks for reviving in me what are cherished memories.
People like you are what makes Renn. Faires special. It's amazing to wander around and hear this type of music just casually played for anyone to listen to.
Fascinating to me that the "dark ages" or medieval period produced lovely tunes such as this with sublime hymns, gentle and humorous love ballads, all in an era of tragic plagues, primitive medical technology lacking even effective pain killers or anesthesia. Today we sing of narcissism, fascination with drugs, death, and depression. What will history call our era? Thank you for reminding us that happiness and resilience do not depend entirely upon comfort and security. We can learn from our ancestors.

As I understan it, the style depends very much in the focus a society has in a given time period. You have to consider that during the medieval period in all of its extension, pretty much every artist was under the command or at least influence of the religious powers, most of them working directly as free lance artist (so to speak XD) for the church. The religious point of view of the time was intentionally reflected in the paintings, directing all atention to god and making humans appear more simple and small. Theocentrism. The paintings start to become more focused on human anatomy again when anthropocentrism slowly takes the focus.
I was peacefully studying but then I end up crying hearing every piece of music that gives me so much nostalgia. I can't believe we grew up so fast. Everything just seemed like it happened yesterday
Sometimes old music may get passed down through generations then someone may wright it down, but still it is wild that music like that can be passed down for us to here this day.

'Miri it is while summer ilast' is my favourite track of this compilation. I keep coming back for that one in particular. I am a great enthusiast of early renaissance and medieval music and want to thank you profusely for your uploads.
Those were the days! I remember this like it was yesterday. My best friend Eoer had his ears chopped off for catching a rabbit on the Earl's land and I was so in love with Benicia, the miller's daughter. We would walk hand in hand down by the stream. She died of the bloody flux but before she did, we loved passionately.
The music of a past age sings the soul of its inhabitants and when that music vibrates with us its beauty and sheer elegance (especially from an age most brutal physically) it truly confirms that art is eternal and teaches that neither time or distance or culture, or the brutality of wars or catastrophes or poverty, can eliminate our shared and common humanity. All hail our musicians!
What a great collection. I am forever thankful to the great patience from all researchers that invested countless hours, finding these gems. Also we all need to thank the musicians that dedicate time to learn and beautifully play these music with instruments from the era. Thank you to whomever recorded and upload these recordings so we all can enjoy it, and this music is no lost forever. Thank to you all.
My brother, Wigheard fought for the kingdom of Wessex against the Northman invaders. When he came back he wasn't the same, he wouldn't eat right. It was terrifying what happened to him. But when we went to the tavern and heard this, it brought back emotion to his once dead eyes. He sang along like his life depended on it. That was the day he truly came back from the war. This song really reminds me of him, he died of the flu in 954
awesome , thank you for sharing this. Was Wigheard at Hastings in 1066? Those Norman bastards were so cunning indeed. They cannot destroy angolsaxon culture! And did he see poor King Herald slayed.... ah but some poetic justice. William the Conqueror died alone and forlorn in Caen, am I right?
yea it brings you back during this period which wasnt that "dark" actually i would have liked to live or just see how it was in like 1000's - 1200's i know during the 13th century life was pretty calm, no big war,no much diseases, good king in france a tons of technological improvement ...
Well, I listen to all sorts of music (doom metal to classical to jungle ,hip hop and a lot in between), I feel you just look for the music that suits your mood and strikes a cord within
I play medieval music almost all day when I am alone working in a very little heath food store. I had a woman actually upset I was playing this genre of music. She really couldn't understand and was very disconcerted.
I know! I wish there was a misty island we could live on behind castle walls in our timber houses & spend our nights drinking mead & playing our own musical instruments, after a day of crafting out our living!
This has brightened my day. I don't know why I particularly love this type of music but it might be because it has a simplicity and emotion that particularly moves me.
@@FiggsNeughton he means people often find history interesting in retrospect without suffering what the contemporary human suffered. if someone's about to get killed, or be ripped off by his lord etc., probably wouldn't think the era he's living in interesting. We often unconsciously associate the love for music with the love for a lifestyle. It's understandable since music has profound impacts on us. Of course it's possible to be super interested in a historical period but one has to read a lot to have a concrete idea about it. Therefore certain people on the internet might find loving an era solely for the music during that era superficial and would like to gently criticize it as in this case.
For me It's absolutely incredible how this songs were written more than 500 years ago and still they sound so beautiful! Humans are are humans, after all...
This evokes something in you ..like echos of emotions from the past of lives lived and now gone. Very earthy and distant..the statues ,art ,and architecture is all that remains..along with its signature tunes of medieval music. It’s a refreshing escapism, from our plastic and directionless existence in today shambolic society. Mother Earth has seen it all...and sighs. Which is worse.
Youre delusional if your think the middle ages are better than the world today. Dont blame your directionless existence on the world around, blame it on yourself
@@VX-cy4du they were better, but in a way that a modern mind cannot comprehend. your existence is directionless if you live how most of the people of today live, that is not up to debate if youre a thinking person
@@adenise__122 Yeah, most people don't commit their life to their own flourishing and happiness. Middle ages don't allow that, you did what your father did or what your lord wanted. You had no choice
@@kiritsuna Very true when I hear this kind of music I only imagine the festivels they had or doing morning work in the friendly village farm that once exsited. I bet it was a simpler life but unless you were a royalty it was diffcult to stay alive.

Это удивительно - слушать музыку, которой 700 - 900 лет. Музыку, которая украшала жизнь людей столько столетий назад. 10 веков - это огромный пласт времени, отделяющий нас от тех, кто жил тогда, и какая красота сохранилась. Словно звучат голоса тех людей. Потрясающе!
Хоть и говорят, что в средневековье было тяжело жить, но как же люди тогда любили красоту. Завораживающая музыка, красивые дома, росписи на внутренних стен замков. Это ли не прекрасно?
@@Meaningless_71говорят кур доят. Нам внушили, что было тяжело. А как на самом деле мы не знаем. Можем только догадываться. Везде пропагандируют "тёмные века". Серые замки, казни и так далее. А давайте посмотрим на дворец Иоана Великого в Кремле. Это средние века. Посмотрите какой он яркий, красивый, расписной. Я вас уверяю, что всё было такое. И замки тоже. И люди одевались нарядно и веселились. И пели. Но видимо кому-то надо было внушить всём что это были "тёмные века", а вот теперь то вот оно-счастье. Может чума это было как с ковидом. Может казни это как сейчас. Что подделка? Неизвестно. На наших с вами глазах историю переписывают. Прям внаглую. Что уж говорить о тех веках. Просто интересно как люди могли забыть враз достижения Римской и греческой цивилизации, Персидского и египетского врачевания и вдруг стать неумными, тупыми, дикими. Враньё. И музыка тому доказательство. И витражи. И картины.
@@ольгаН-о2ь посмотри на их фрески, ты бы хотел, чтобы тебя воспринимали как человека только в том случае, если ты наденешь на себя моток ткани и прочие "символы статуса"? Люди в средние века были темными дегенератами и моги сжечь кого-нибудь просто потому, что про него сказали, что он колдун. Но искусство было значительно лучше современного, потому что это был единственный способ развлечения (ютубчика ведь не было). Современных рэперов они бы казнили за богохульство, но лучше все-же жить сегодня.
This is another great example of how important the minor pentatonic scale is to human musical expression. It’s still being used to create popular music 1000 years later. Change the lyrics and instrumentation and you get a different genre… in the end it hasn’t changed much.
I have to comment a second time, this truly is enchanting. I wish I could learn all the languages and sing their songs as not to be forgotten. I am at a loss for words.
Oh wow, this is beautiful. I was only going to listen for a couple minutes just out of vague interest, yet here I am over 10 mins later becoming entranced by it
@@pelayosquared Es mag sein ,das Leben damals nicht schoen gewesen sei , sintemalen keinerlei heutzutage gelaeufige Bequemlichkeiten vorhanden waren Trotzdem das Zuhoeren der mittelalterlichen Musik ist eine unvergleichliche, unwiederholbare mystiche Erfahrung.

Regression hypnosis can investigate former lives, if you can find an experienced therapist. I've ALWAYS had a very strong affinity for the medieval period, for no obvious reason, since I can remember as a child. We may be imagining it, or it could just be we've forgotten. There are children who, imo, have proved reincarnation
@@xxkissmeketutxx This music is quite romantic and rhythmic, which many people are receptive to. Also, countless people over hundreds of years were fascinated with the middle ages; the reasons actually are quite obvious: it's a mystical and at the same time strange and familiar period on which so many stories and fantasy epics are based on. I wouldn't read into it more than that.
Agreed. Whenever I listen to medieval music, I really feel like I’m there. I don’t know why but the mid 1200s have always been the most vivid in my mind.
Hermosa pieza musical, Sublime obra de arte, belleza sin par, simplemente fascinante. Solo genios fuera de serie han creado tan bella melodía. Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
@@abbyjohnson8200 same here I feel so proud when i sing miri it is while summer ilast Do you? Because i used to find it hard but as time went by I started singing it and found out that i can sing it
but the song is really depressing in many ways. it celebrates the great times of summer but in the end winter will come and so the harsh times follows. the duality of medieval life. something we in our heated homes with our global food import system in the 21st century will never truly understand.
Sometimes I feel like I’d kill to live in the Medieval period but then I think of the disease and executions and torture and I change my mind. Dark indeed!

funny these songs are from after 954....
That was beautiful. May him rest in peace.
Music has saved my life numerous times

awesome , thank you for sharing this. Was Wigheard at Hastings in 1066? Those Norman bastards were so cunning indeed. They cannot destroy angolsaxon culture! And did he see poor King Herald slayed.... ah but some poetic justice. William the Conqueror died alone and forlorn in Caen, am I right?
I love hearing Medieval, it calms my anxiety down very much.
Check out CDs from Cantiga and Minced Pye, Covus Corax and Wulmut .
Love this stuff. It especially calms me down during Covid.
Look for Jordi Savall as well, specially the Livre Vermellon of Montserrat if you feel anxious (I feel anxious often as well)
yea it brings you back during this period which wasnt that "dark" actually i would have liked to live or just see how it was in like 1000's - 1200's i know during the 13th century life was pretty calm, no big war,no much diseases, good king in france a tons of technological improvement ...
Oh yes anxiety is a serious threat......especially in our modern world...I suffering since ten years with this....God bless your soul....
that music hit the spot we are definitely a rare bunch who run to medieval era for our happy music
Well, I listen to all sorts of music (doom metal to classical to jungle ,hip hop and a lot in between), I feel you just look for the music that suits your mood and strikes a cord within
I play medieval music almost all day when I am alone working in a very little heath food store. I had a woman actually upset I was playing this genre of music. She really couldn't understand and was very disconcerted.
I know! I wish there was a misty island we could live on behind castle walls in our timber houses & spend our nights drinking mead & playing our own musical instruments, after a day of crafting out our living!
@@user-vu7rv1xf1l well said :D add me on fb evan testa
@@user-vu7rv1xf1l That sounds like a good dream =)
A true blessing, the music in general, from any era, any place...
Praises to the Almighty!
🙏
This has brightened my day. I don't know why I particularly love this type of music but it might be because it has a simplicity and emotion that particularly moves me.
And the Good Lord did blesseth us with his most enchanted musings.
One of the most interesting periods of history, ever.
Agreed!
I don't know we would have to aks the other end of the sword
@@charlesweeks5027 What do you mean?
Personally, I think the most interesting for me would be around 1618, when the 30 year's war started up until 1800.
@@FiggsNeughton he means people often find history interesting in retrospect without suffering what the contemporary human suffered. if someone's about to get killed, or be ripped off by his lord etc., probably wouldn't think the era he's living in interesting.
We often unconsciously associate the love for music with the love for a lifestyle. It's understandable since music has profound impacts on us. Of course it's possible to be super interested in a historical period but one has to read a lot to have a concrete idea about it. Therefore certain people on the internet might find loving an era solely for the music during that era superficial and would like to gently criticize it as in this case.
For tonight we're gonna party like in 1099
🤘
hahahaha get thee out of the nunery and put upon thy feet the dancing sandles !
Dont you mean 1066
We've been spending most our lives living in high medieval age paradise
I will bring my medieval peasant friends!
Toda la cultura medieval europea fue espectacular....desde la arquitectura hasta la música....
De acuerdo.
This is amazing to be able to listen music from that era..I love that era everything about it .. Thank you for meeting me with this lovely tunes..
:) klasik müziğinin atası olduğunu bilmek hem hoşuma gidiyor hem de garip hissettiriyor.
For me It's absolutely incredible how this songs were written more than 500 years ago and still they sound so beautiful! Humans are are humans, after all...
The secret is in the rhythm section.
This evokes something in you ..like echos of emotions from the past of lives lived and now gone.
Very earthy and distant..the statues ,art ,and architecture is all that remains..along with its signature tunes of medieval music.
It’s a refreshing escapism, from our plastic and directionless existence in today shambolic society.
Mother Earth has seen it all...and sighs.
Which is worse.
i feel the same way about the world
Youre delusional if your think the middle ages are better than the world today. Dont blame your directionless existence on the world around, blame it on yourself
@@VX-cy4du they were better, but in a way that a modern mind cannot comprehend. your existence is directionless if you live how most of the people of today live, that is not up to debate if youre a thinking person
@@adenise__122 Yeah, most people don't commit their life to their own flourishing and happiness. Middle ages don't allow that, you did what your father did or what your lord wanted. You had no choice
Wonderful comment really
Hah ... The good old music! Man leaves The Middle Ages, The Middle Ages does not leave Man.
Weening
I don´t know why but listening to medieval music reminds me of happiness and joyfulness. Something sparks within my soul,
Same!!
And yet, it was one of the toughest periods to live in
@@kiritsuna Very true when I hear this kind of music I only imagine the festivels they had or doing morning work in the friendly village farm that once exsited. I bet it was a simpler life but unless you were a royalty it was diffcult to stay alive.
The happiness and joy would be that your ancestors managed to live long-enough each to ensure your current existence. Be happy and joyful in that.
@@kiritsunaSólo desde la perspectiva de los débiles seres humanos actuales. Somos enanos a lomos de gigantes.
This lovely music good for dancing and sounds very fun........ Thank you for posting it here
I'm a terrible dancer, but I agree!
Desde niño me encanta todo lo que tenga que ver con la edad media, soy mexicano y debo decir que me gusta más la historia europea. Es impresionante, mi sueño es conocer sus castillos.
vos sabes ke a mi mep'asa igual...se ke la edad media no fue el mejor momento para vivir ymenos siendo mujer pero me atrea tanto ke no te puedo explicar....ver a esos caballeros peleando por sus reynos y su cristiandad me fascina¡¡¡¡
Pues tienes que visitar Castilla en España por algo se llama "Castilla" por la gran cantidad de castillos en esa comunidad.
@@samvel_mmiii Si lo he querido hacer, visitar ahí y Mont Saint-Michel que es mi sueño .
Меня история СССР больше интересует
Это удивительно - слушать музыку, которой 700 - 900 лет. Музыку, которая украшала жизнь людей столько столетий назад. 10 веков - это огромный пласт времени, отделяющий нас от тех, кто жил тогда, и какая красота сохранилась. Словно звучат голоса тех людей. Потрясающе!
Хоть и говорят, что в средневековье было тяжело жить, но как же люди тогда любили красоту. Завораживающая музыка, красивые дома, росписи на внутренних стен замков. Это ли не прекрасно?
@@Meaningless_71говорят кур доят. Нам внушили, что было тяжело. А как на самом деле мы не знаем. Можем только догадываться. Везде пропагандируют "тёмные века". Серые замки, казни и так далее. А давайте посмотрим на дворец Иоана Великого в Кремле. Это средние века. Посмотрите какой он яркий, красивый, расписной. Я вас уверяю, что всё было такое. И замки тоже. И люди одевались нарядно и веселились. И пели. Но видимо кому-то надо было внушить всём что это были "тёмные века", а вот теперь то вот оно-счастье. Может чума это было как с ковидом. Может казни это как сейчас. Что подделка? Неизвестно. На наших с вами глазах историю переписывают. Прям внаглую. Что уж говорить о тех веках. Просто интересно как люди могли забыть враз достижения Римской и греческой цивилизации, Персидского и египетского врачевания и вдруг стать неумными, тупыми, дикими. Враньё. И музыка тому доказательство. И витражи. И картины.
@@ольгаН-о2ь посмотри на их фрески, ты бы хотел, чтобы тебя воспринимали как человека только в том случае, если ты наденешь на себя моток ткани и прочие "символы статуса"? Люди в средние века были темными дегенератами и моги сжечь кого-нибудь просто потому, что про него сказали, что он колдун. Но искусство было значительно лучше современного, потому что это был единственный способ развлечения (ютубчика ведь не было). Современных рэперов они бы казнили за богохульство, но лучше все-же жить сегодня.
I dont know what you are sayng bro. But i hope it brings peace to.your troubled land.
@@ольгаН-о2ь я это и хотел сказать что все не так и плохо там было. Ну я так думаю.
Thank you to Rachel for doing such a good job of putting this together.
This is another great example of how important the minor pentatonic scale is to human musical expression. It’s still being used to create popular music 1000 years later. Change the lyrics and instrumentation and you get a different genre… in the end it hasn’t changed much.
Fabulous tune 🤸🎶🤸🎶🍀 thank you so much for sharing this fabulous music 🍀🌺🦋🍀
I have to comment a second time, this truly is enchanting. I wish I could learn all the languages and sing their songs as not to be forgotten. I am at a loss for words.
I love pre-classical music. I really enjoy the medieval and tudor/renaissance eras.
Tudor is 16 th century Brit-
Renaissance Italy- is 15+ 16 centuries
Alienor is 12th century
well noted thanks!@@janel342

This new fangled music will never catch on. I'm used to the sound of knaping flints. Ha!
Ancestral memories intensify
Bella composición de imágenes y melodías...!!! Felicidades.
Oh wow, this is beautiful. I was only going to listen for a couple minutes just out of vague interest, yet here I am over 10 mins later becoming entranced by it
Pretty decent recording software for that long ago!

Diese Musik versetzt mich in die vorigen Jahrhunderte und laesst mich eine romantische Vergangenheit wiederentdecken.
Aber denken Sie daran, Giovanni, das Leben war damals nicht sehr schön

What a good taste
Timeless! Thousands of years from now, this will still be soothing souls..
The music around 11:07 is really hitting something in my heart. I feel like i lived back then. It sounds and "feels" familiar.
Regression hypnosis can investigate former lives, if you can find an experienced therapist. I've ALWAYS had a very strong affinity for the medieval period, for no obvious reason, since I can remember as a child. We may be imagining it, or it could just be we've forgotten. There are children who, imo, have proved reincarnation
@@xxkissmeketutxx This music is quite romantic and rhythmic, which many people are receptive to. Also, countless people over hundreds of years were fascinated with the middle ages; the reasons actually are quite obvious: it's a mystical and at the same time strange and familiar period on which so many stories and fantasy epics are based on. I wouldn't read into it more than that.
@MrGrumpyGills Who knows? The same music that i have interpreted as familiar, you have interpreted as romantic 🤷 Perception is a heck of a thing 🤣
Agreed. Whenever I listen to medieval music, I really feel like I’m there. I don’t know why but the mid 1200s have always been the most vivid in my mind.
Merci pour votre partage et de me permettre de découvrir cette musique intemporelle... 😘
Good evening from Portugal! What a beautiful time machine ! Thank you very much! Muito obrigado! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !
Beautiful patterning of sounds.
So balanced, lovely to listen to.

I love this period for its art and music.
Yes, and the human torture was exquisite back then.
Medieval art is very interesting. Especially them portraying baby Jesus with abs and a full head of hair. In which there is an explanation.

I like that one too. After listening to it a bunch, I can sing along now.
@@abbyjohnson8200 same here
I feel so proud when i sing miri it is while summer ilast
Do you? Because i used to find it hard but as time went by I started singing it and found out that i can sing it
but the song is really depressing in many ways. it celebrates the great times of summer but in the end winter will come and so the harsh times follows. the duality of medieval life. something we in our heated homes with our global food import system in the 21st century will never truly understand.

Such a beautiful music! How can you say the Middle Ages were a dark period!
Cause they killed you for like the smallest reason. Take a loaf of bread off with your head. They were violent
