Le Souvenir de Vous me Tue by Asteria Asteria : Le Souvenir de Vous me Tue.
 Late-medieval vocal and instrumental music.

How can a voice be so rich and pure at the same time? Sylvia Rhyne's voice is full-bodied yet pristine, and together with Eric Redlinger, she makes medieval music fresh and relevant by emphasizing its emotional immediacy and themes of love. Le Souvenir De Vous Me Tue emphasizes the lush beauty of music from this era as well as the expressiveness of the texts, and features music from the court of Phillip the Good—a French duke known for his passionate patronage of the arts and chivalrous world-view.
