MEDIEVAL MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS. That is what I am good at!

Rose, liz, printemps, verdure (Guillaume de Machaut)

There is no rose of swych vertu (anonymous English, 15th c., so a little later than you technically want, but it's so beautiful)

Rosa das rosas (Alfonso X, Cantigas de Santa Maria)

Of a rose singe we (anonymous English, 15th century. Link goes to file download)

Nou shrinketh rose and lily flour (anon. English, 14th century. Link goes to file download)

En mai quant rosier sont flouri (Adam de la Halle)

It's not really that far out of period -- the earliest MS version is 15th-century, is all, and it's early 15th at that. :)

I'm glad you like the songs! I love medieval music and I love sharing it with others.
