Note that tracks #6 & #10 use medieval melodies, both citing Hoppin's anthology. Track #7 does not, despite that availability. Track #13 is marked as "traditional" and the remainder are listed as having been written explicitly by members of the band. As can readily be seen, choice of instruments is arbitrary, and probably meant to "seem" medieval to the uninitiated.
