After this one-volume reissue compilation from its Early Music archives, DHM has decided to reissue some compilation devoted to centuries:

Century Classics Volume 1 - 1000-1400

Hildegard / Perotin
Sequentia / Pro Cantione Antiqua / Deller Consort
Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 77600

Century Classics Volume 2 - 1400-1500

Dunstable / Dufay / Binchois
Pro Cantione Antiqua / Schola Cantorum Basiliensis
Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 77601

Century Classics Volume 3 - 1500-1600

Lasso / Palestrina / Lechner
Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 77602

Century Classics Volume 4 - 1600-1700

Monteverdi / Schütz / Marais
Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 77603

These seem useful for the newcomer. Previously, they had done the rather "New Age"-style compilations:

Ancient Music for a Modern Age

Sequentia
Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 61868

Chill to the Chant

Sequentia / Schola Cantorum Basiliensis
Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 62666

And now some other topical compilations....

Deutsche Harmonia Mundi 77607

Songs of Love
