Cantigas de Santa Maria

Album by Ensemble Unicorn & Alfonso X el Sabio

Cantigas de Santa Maria is a 13th-century manuscript collection of devotional songs compiled by Alfonso X el Sabio, dated to around 1270. The music is written in Galician-Portuguese and is largely monophonic with modal melodies and occasional instrumental accompaniment noted in the manuscripts, and the collection has musical notation and illuminated pages that document medieval Iberian devotional music and court culture.
