Medieval music recorded by CMB kids. Here are some audio fragments from our album and a few pics. "California Medieval Faire" is available at nimbitmusic.com/childrenmedievalband
Compared to many other medieval music recordings, our album is not the best quality, but it brings a new concept: medieval music shouldn’t be danceable, powerful or melodious by today’s standards. Instead we tried to convey other dimensions of this style: fairy-tale atmosphere, innocence and candor, some piousness and natural freshness. We believe that we have opened a new avenue on the neo-medieval genre.

The “California Medieval Faire” album contains
ten Medieval and Renaissance pieces, played and recorded while we were in California. Quite unexpectedly, but in this part of USA there are numerous Medieval Faires. Between 2012-2016 we have played each year at four of them: Big Bear City, Ventura, Escondido and Poway.
Nevertheless, the most interesting fact for us was to be invited at Dehesa School in Newport, where we played for about 100 young kids. This kind of “fairy-tale” music is only rarely promoted to children – and this is quite sad – that’s why we were happy to go and interact with the kids. We have to be optimistic. We are trying to make a difference.
