    DANIEL STEVEN CRAFTS

    Composer, and classical music reviewer for the Albuquerque Journal





    Just what were those troubadors really singing about? What were they smoking in-side those echoey cathedrals. Who was Guillaume de Machaut and what was he up to? Why did English music have a sound different from that of the rest of Europe. These and other questions you may not have ever thought to ask will be answered in a personal tour through the splendors and mysteries of Medieval music.
