Spirit of the Age

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Christopher Page introduces the first of five programmes on musical settings of early English poetry. Today, he explores repertoire from the Middle Ages, beginning with the songs of the 12th-century hermit and saint, Godric, via the stepping-stones of anonymous 13th-century lyrics, including Sumer is i-cumen in, to the 15th-century carol.
