This, Than & the Other

Justin Coe talks to Francisco Singul, author, historian and curator of an exhibition at Madrid's Casa de Galicia devoted to the 12th century illustrated manuscript known as the Codex Calixtinus. The music heard during the program are pieces found in the manuscript and transcribed by modern scholars: "Dum paterfamilias" (also known as "Canto de Ultreya"), "Kyrie Cunctipotens," "Portum in ultimo," and "Regis perennis."
