Medieval music...if the Rolling Stones would play it. Lots of percussion and tribal rhythm - "Stomp" meets "Medieval Times." Authentic medieval music played on hand-made, historically accurate instruments, delivered with a ton of energy and plenty of attitude. Seven men on stage, multiple bagpipers and drummers. Lyrics in Latin.
We are proud to present you the Corvus Corax "GREY WARDEN SONG" for Dragon Age: Origins. To have a first impression of the song click "Reinhören" - that means "listen". Have fun with this song! - and try the trailer!
Already in the mid 80s the Corvus Corax minstrels were roaming as street performers throughout the country (East Germany). They found fragments of medieval-secular music in old writings and reworked them, in a completely new way. Many medieval bands have sought to emulate the style of Corvus Corax and there is certainly no medieval market in Germany where the songs from Corvus Corax are not played.
The 4 bag pipe players and 3 percussionists of Corvus Corax have created an unmistakable sound, which unites the haunting medieval melodies with hypnotic dance rhythms and drives audiences wild every time they play.
Corvus Corax have long been acclaimed for their legendary concerts and few can avoid getting caught up in the ecstatic power of their acoustic performance in their fantastic self-created costumes.

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
I've heard you are on Game of Thrones, so I needed to check you out. (I'm one of the crazy fans):) And I like what I hear. Very,very much! Greetings from Serbia!
