A radiant and varied collection of 13th-century French conductus and chansons in praise of the Virgin Mary from 2002. Drawn from the Notre Dame repertoire, or adapted from vernacular lyrics of the northern French trouvères, these ardent songs echo the European prehistoric culture of goddess worship.

“Anonymous 4 cast a spell difficult to resist.” - The Times

"sublime...coupled with superb production, the quartet’s programme explores thirteenth-century song, largely from the northern French trouveres tradition, with exquisite clarity and warmth." - Tarik O’Regan, Classical CD of the Week, The Observer, 6 October 2002
