The Lost Mode by The Lost Mode The Lost Mode : The Lost Mode.
Medieval music meets living modal music traditions.


Medieval music meets living modal music traditions: The Lost Mode features an eclectic set of music from the Middle Ages, as well as melodies from Sephardic, North African, Armenian, Breton, and Basque modal traditions. Our interpretations are meant to extend, complement, and bridge the gap between written sources and oral transmission.

New compositions based on medieval models stand next to their century-old counterparts. Some melodies are lifted out of their original context, presented in a different meter, or brought to life on instruments that would not have been known in the music's original culture. The result: a multi-layered, time-and boundary-crossing collection of tones, timbres, textures, lovingly held together by the common thread of mode.
