The answer is presented here by the small group known as Sequentia, in a program of songs which were found in a 1000-year-old collection at Cambridge University, songs that had been copied down by Augustinian monks. The subjects vary from re-telling the complete myth of Orpheus and Eurydice (in 10 minutes!) to one about King David, to a lover's tale of the appearance, at night, of her dead darling. Along the way there are songs about how good it is to sing, a dialogue between a man and the nun he is trying to seduce (actually, there are a few "seduction" songs here), one about the three German emperors named Otto and more. There are three singers---occasionally all are involved at once, at times there are duets, several are solos. A harp, lyre, and, occasionally, flute are used as accompaniments. While one can hardly expect toe-tappers, this fascinating collection is incredibly catchy; the three singers are expressive storytellers who sing in a natural, non-operatic manner, and the style, though unfamiliar, is riveting. Recommended---a fine curiosity. --Robert Levine ## Images ![Lost Songs of the Rhineland Harper - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71KAQ8aUw0L.jpg) ![Lost Songs of the Rhineland Harper - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71lXd-28gdL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Utterly convincing as Music! *by G***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 4, 2007* Benjamin Bagby is a formidable scholar; though I'm an "early music" performer myself, I couldn't begin to challenge the historical authenticity of these performances. But I can swear they SOUND authentic. That is, I can imagine such performances by an 11th C minnesinger of the first rank, a world class poet/harper. This is a far more varied and enjoyable CD than Sequentia's "Edda", and one I will listen to purely for musical satisfaction. The lighter voices of tenor Eric Menzel and alto Agnethe Christensen complement perfectly the manly, world-knowing timbre of Bagby's mature voice, and Ms Christensen's Danish accent in Latin has a charm of its own, possibly sounding quite like how a Medieval Rhinelander might have pronounced Latin. The lyre/harp/flute accompaniments are more than mere noodling; they have musical substance to deliver. For the moment, for me, this CD is the gold-standard of performance of the "secular" 10th & 11th C repertoire. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful *by A***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 5, 2013* Excellent historical performances by excellent historical performers. Tastefully done, and well balanced. It is impossible to know exactly how a piece may have sounded from then, especially since most surviving examples are fragments, and even these fragments can only hint at how a line may have flowed. However, the vibrancy that these "modern" musicians give to these pieces fills that gap of over a thousand years with a knowledge, tradition, and spirit of music that will inspire you; bringing to life the poetry of our ancestors. Already a big fan of Sequentia!! I am never disappointed. Always an excellent performance, matched with credible scholarship!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by M***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 9, 2016* Great songs, wonderful research into songs for ordinary people not just church hymns. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/7709466-lost-songs-of-the-rhineland-harper](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/7709466-lost-songs-of-the-rhineland-harper) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
