Texas Early Music Project (TEMP) invites you to explore more than 700 years of musical transformations in this compilation of our 2012-2013 concert season. The selections from six programs are all about connections: musical and textual, worldly and ethereal. Each concert is a multicultural creation in its own right, as we hear the musical links between different Continental courts and chapels, the relationships of the Celtic branches with each other, and the traditional Sephardic themes as they were influenced by new cultures after the Diaspora.

Recorded live performances at various venues, Austin, TX.
Jay Norwood, Sound Engineer.
