Comments:
Information from performer website & Jorge Salazar, who says:
This is a curious combination: CD1 is a "radio play" [Hörspiel] (spoken in German, sounding a bit like a scholarly discussion about the codex and the composers that appear in it, with some musical accompaniment in the background); CD2 contains musical selections, as well as a multimedia presentation of the codex, the minnesingers, and the instruments heard.
