(3 out of 5 stars)

"The instrumental music is beautifully done, but I can't recommend the album because it lacks vocal talent, but this is just my opinion. Some of the best selections are: Estampie; Ahi!Amors, Com Dure Departie; Sexte Estampie Real; Ar Ne Kuth Ich Sorghe Non (Dance); and Cuer Disirrous Apaie."
