Pilgrimage music of the camino

A selection of pilgrimage music of the camino...
Well, what is pilgrimage music.

Is it related to themes of religion,
is it related to medieval times, 
to the instruments of Galicia or northern Spain or
to representative moods you encounter while doing the camino?

Just make up your mind and enjoy.

Full Text Stella Splendens

"Sequitur alia cantilena ad trepudium rotundum:

Stella splendens in monte ut solis radium miraculis serrato exaudi populum.

Concurrunt universi gaudentes populi

divites et egeni grandes et parvuli

Principes et magnates extirpe regia

ipsum ingrediuntur ut cernunt oculi et inde revertuntur gracijis repleti. saeculi potestates obtenta venia

Prelati et barones comites incliti

peccaminum proclamant tundentes pectora poplite flexo clamant hic: Ave Maria. religiosi omnes atque presbyteri milites mercatores cives marinari

artifices et omnes gratulantur ibi.

burgenses piscatores praemiantur ibi. Rustici aratores nec non notarii advocati scultores cuncti ligni fabri sartores et sutores nec non lanifici

Coetus hic aggregantur hic ut exhibeant

Reginae comitissae illustres dominae potentes et ancillae juvenes parvulae virgines et antiquae pariter viduae conscendunt et hunc montem et religiosae.

mentes nostras mundantes oremus devote

vota regratiantur ut ipsa et reddant aulam istam ditantes hoc cuncti videant jocalibus ornantes soluti redeant. Cuncti ergo precantes sexus utriusque virginem gloriosam matrem clementiae

in coelis gratiosam sentiamus vere."
