A Discography

Last update: woensdag 09 juli 2008

NEWS October 2006: I recently discovered ALIA VOX has a beautiful website of it's own with audio examples. This is what we have been waiting for.


This discography is not pretending being complete. If you have additional information or notice inaccuracies, please send me an e-mail. 

For more detailed information about recordings of Montserrat Figueras, I refer to the site Jordi Savall of the
Medieval Music & Arts Foundation site.

With thanks to Norbert Fohler for his additions.
