Polyphony
These two disks arrived today (click on the images to find links to sound files):Both are from Naxos, which has become my favorite label in recent years. It offers high-quality, low-price recordings of hard-to-find music.
I first discovered the world of Polyphony from an unlikely source. In The Log from the Sea of Cortez, John Steinbeck's non-fiction work, we learn that Edward F. Ricketts, the model for the character "Doc" in Cannery Row, although a bohemian and a scientist of the most scientistic sort, had a taste for the music of Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
