Thread Name: German folk music
Subject: RE: German folk music
Has anybody heard a group called Wolgemut? They're based in Berlin, but they came to Pennsylvania a couple of weeks ago. They do mostly medieval/Renaissance era pieces, and occasionally write a tune in that style. They're great; I haven't seen an "early music" group with so much energy since I saw the Baltimore Consort at Old Songs Folk Festival a few years ago. I'm a cheapskate and I bought their CD! Their website is at http://www.wolgemut.com
