Getting distracted by medieval music - discovered a very nice piece on an Italian album of medieval songs involving alcohol.

On parole de batre/A Paris/Frese nouvelle

which is a 13th C motet from The Montpellier Codex. I find it rather cool that the Tenor line is a repeat of:

Frese nouvelle!
Muere frace muere muere frace!

Fresh strawberries!
Sound/Honest blackberries, sound/honest blackberries



I have decanted the music to mp3 (now on USB stick so can inflict...), and can find part of the sheet music here, but apparently a subscription is required for the second page and printing :(
