Guillaume De Machaut: A Burning Heart – The Orlando Consort
Hé, dame de vaillance
Cinc, un, trese
De souspirant/Tous corps qui de bien amer/Suspiro, M2
Helas, pour quoy se demente et complaint
Esperance qui m’asseüre, B13
Pas de tor en thies pais

Une vipere
Tuit mi penser
Plus dure que un dyamant
Vos dous resgars, douce dame, m’a mort
Se je me pleing, B15
Qui plus aimme/Aucune gent m’ont demandé/Fiat voluntas tua, M5
