"Vurdering: Recording of the month" - "In short, this is a breathtaking achievement. It's the kind of disc that often left me in quiet astonishment not just at its ambition, artistry or skill, but at the way it tries to further the human story and enrich the experience of us all. Bravo!".

"Jordi Savall has an impressive track-record realising music from the Iberian Peninsula/al-Andalus in the centuries prior to the consolidation of Spain under Castile and Leon. Much of that music, with its rich blending of elements from Christian, Muslim and Judaic traditions, remains somewhat exotic to modern northern ears. As ever, Sadall points up the sources' colour, vitality, expressiveness and socio-political context in an exciting, fascinating and utterly beguiling programme ... The singers are superb ... the realisations and performances are consistently moving and beautiful".

"The indefatigable Jordi Savall continues to unite musicians from east and West ... He retains the grandiose opening instrumental verse, but this Granada performance is statelier, with lightly etched rhythm ... The celebration of musical interconnectedness is manifest in the smoothness of Savall's programme and its execution ... Heart-rending moments of beauty abound".

"The Spanish early music maestro Jordi Savall likes big projects. None comes much bigger than re-creating 500 years of music for "Granada 1013-1502" ... Highly recommended".
