CD Reviews

Crystal clear, unearthly melodies.

"What lovliness! I am transported by the voices of these women to Hildegaard's abbey. The poetry of these chants should not be overlooked either. Read the liner notes and get the translations. They are gorgeous."
I admit to being bias

"I adore Hildegard! She is one of the few women in music history that made such a consistent line of compositions through her life. In addition, she was a champion for women in the church, going against the authorities in order to make life better for women.



And on top of that, her music is wonderfully expressive and beyond the limitations intended to remain on music in her day. This album beautifully represents her ideas, taking the tone suitable for singing early music. The acoustical setting in which the pieces were recorded obviously takes into consideration the fact that these pieces would have been performed in a church or monastery.



If you only own one early music CD, this would be a great pick!"
