    If you like foreign language there is always Nordman here from Sweden, he have a kind of modern middle-age music, but fortunatly for me, unfortunatly for you, he sings in Swedish.

    What time frame is Middle Age? If you mean the Middle Ages (ie: pre-1500 stuff), I have a textbook that gives some names of people from that era. I doubt this is what you want so unless you say so, I'll leave the textbook shelved.

    Are you looking for true Middle age music? or music based off it? If you want music based off the Middle ages a couple of guys I listen too...
    Yngwie Malmsteen- Neo Heavy Metal VERY influenced by Beethoven, Bach, Motzart and Paginini
    Jethro Tull- how can you NOT listen to Ian and the boys.
    Trans Siberian Orchestra- NY based rockers that are the founding members of SAVATAGE, have 3 albums out, 2 X-mas and one is an opera based on "Bethovans Last Night" Admittedly it's a stretch from Middle age/Renn music.. but it is cool. Most Renn FAires have guys/groups that are all Rennaisance Music. Check out web sites, they'll have links. check out
    "the Scottish Rogues" and "the Minstrels of Mayhem"

    Would the Gregorian Masters Of Chant series count? I saw the ad for the fourth in the series last night. For any that don't know, it's all fairly recent music done in the Gregorian style.

    I have a "Middle Age" CD that my mom bought for me a long time ago. Many of the songs on the CD are English folk songs so I'm not sure what composers existed in this age.

    And don't listen to those who would tell you that Riverdance and Michael Flatley shows suck. They're not too bad. My mum has Lord Of The Dance on video and while I don't see the fuss about Flatley himself, the show is pretty damn good.
