Hello, Susanna!
How are you?
As main expert here on Mesomedes of Crete, please tell me...
There`s famous Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek.
On his album "Mnemosyne" there are versions of Delphic hymn and Hymn to the Sun by Mesomedes. These songs are performed by well-known choir The Hilliard Ensemble. Usually they are performing Renaissance music. So thier version of Hymn to the Sun sounds very strange.
Listen to the soundclip on the following link (it is last track of the album):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00000 ... oding=UTF8
What do you think of this and what did they do to the original?
