Are you in the mood for a little medieval history? For Christmas, I got a CD with poems from the age of Charlemagne and one of them really stuck with me. It's the description of a battle between Charlemagne's heirs, one that would influence the shape of Western European states until today.
Have a listen to the wonderful rendition of the song here:
