Spotlight Video: Beguiled

October 13, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 1:30 pm

NEW AIR TIME: 2pm EST

Tune in to watch and learn about a featured chant from our upcoming program, Beguiled, featuring the music of Hildegard von Bingen. Eya’s director Allison Mondel will present “O splendidissima gemma,” a profound song devoted to the Virgin Mary.

This piece, originally derived from Hildegard’s first visionary work, ‘Scivias,’ is inlaid with vibrant images and symbols, and musical rhetoric that captures our imagination, and once again proves Hildegard’s maverick, inspired approach to her compositions.

Also featured is Prof. Barbara Newman, reading her own translation of this piece.

The Spotlight Video will be featured on our website, YouTube channel, and Facebook page.
