The Unicorn
about the program
The Unicorn
my only desire
Inspired by the mysterious medieval tapestries known as “The Lady and the Unicorn,” this program amplifies the voices of visionary women who seek—and find—sacred union unto themselves. Featuring the rare body of medieval music of women, including the French trouvères, Hildegard von Bingen, Las Huelgas Codex, and others, as well and a special new commission by Baltimore-based composer (and friend of Eya) Douglas Buchanan. The program also features the voices of medieval and contemporary women mystics.
