Here, at last, is Hildegard sung by Benedictine nuns...living the same air...and trying to cature the spirit of their great 12th Century predecessors. The structure of Vespers is used...in a plausible context...they represent really lovely, rather unusual tones, beautifully sung, and with understanding."
