Music and Medieval Narrative

Produced by Linda Marie Zaerr at Boise State University in 2010. This is a DVD illustrating Prof. Zaerr's thesis that Medieval Romances were performed live with musical instruments and singing too sometimes.

Sir Orfeo

In this Middle English performance with harp and singing by the Zaerr sisters, we have a happy ending to the Orpheus and Eurydice story. The full romance is performed here with Modern English subtitles as an added feature to this on-stage performance.
