the album is called carols and capers Maddy Prior and the carnival band
Syncopation and 16th century electric guitars, I didn't know those Renaissance era royals knew how to rock out so good.
The boar's head in hand bear I,
Bedecked with bay and rosemary;
And I pray you my masters be merry,
Quot estis in convivio (as many as are at the feast)
Refrain
Caput apri defero,( I bring in the boar's head, giving thanks to the Lord)
Reddens laudes Domino. (repeat)
The boar's head as I understand,
Is the bravest dish in all the land
When thus bedecked with a gay garland;
Let us servire cantico (serve it with a song)
Our steward hath provided this
In honour of the King of Bliss,
Which on this day to be serv`ed is
In Reginensi Atrio (in Queen's Hall).
Lovely, thank you for uploading!
so earthy and Tudor
Wonderful !!!
The wild boar became extinct in the UK in the 13th century. It was later reintroduced and became extinct again the 17th century. The song refers to the boars head as the "rarest dish" which indicates that the song was written in the 17th century or before.
Caput aferi dei fero... glorious!!
Dance on Maddy

The new movie "Emma" features them
Medieval Latin is not the same as classical Latin and the pronunciation is more variable. Chill (if you haven't already, I know this is a very late comment)
she has a nice voice but she is butchering the latin...
There are different schools of thought on pronouncing Latin. Just relax and enjoy. I am talking to myself, too - I've had to relax my standards on Latin pronunciation to enjoy this.
@@pamelawisebronson3511 sorry but if i didnt know the lyrics id never even guess she was trying to sing latin its that bad.
@@rexcaliburn we have no idea how Latin was pronounced since it's a dead language... the way scholars pronounce it is certainly nothing like current Italian
