The Minnesänger were German knightly poet-musicians whose school flourished between the XII and XIV centuries. They would sing about love (Minne); texts of the Minnelieder included loving depictions of the glow and freshness of spring. There were also Tagelieder, or Watcher’s songs, sung by the faithful friend who standed guard and warned the lovers that dawn was approaching. We like to think that the sound of these songs reflects that exact, yet vague moment. released 02 June 2010 Mama’s Gan - Watcher’s Songs Laura {ZogaroS} Montanari - voice Eleonora Beddini - piano All songs arranged by Eleonora Beddini Artistic & Executive production: Mama’s Gan Recorded at MODU lab (Casalecchio sul Reno - BO) on 10 + 11 August 2009 by Marco Biscarini.
