CD releases
This list contains recently released recordings. It has been put together from several sources. Additions and corrections are most welcome.
The list is divided into two sections: first all releases devoted to one composer or a couple of composers. When works by more than one composer are recorded, the CD is alphabetised on the 'main' composer; otherwise on the first composer in the alphabet. After that follow the 'collections': CDs which contain works by three or more composers.
The name of the label and the reference number link - if possible - to a site with more information about the release.
Recordings which have been previously released are marked with (R).
Many record companies have a website. For lists look at Medieval Music & Arts
Foundation or at Early Music Links.
At the bottom of this page you will find links to previous lists with CD releases.
