During our 2022 Continuo Foundation supported tour of music from the manuscripts of Margaret of Austria (1480-1530), which we entitled Epitaph for a Green Lover, it became clear that there was keen demand for the programme.

After every performance of this beautiful and unrepresented music, the audience asked if we had made a recording; in the end, we took heed.

Margaret of Austria, Duchess of Savoy, Governor of the Habsburg Netherlands, was a great patron of the arts who loved to dance and sing. But, above all, she loved her green parrot.
