AMG Review of Ancient Music for a Modern Age
MusD
All Music GuideFrom the dark abbeys of the Middle Ages, Sequentia brilliantly brings to light the vocal and instrumental music of the medieval 12th and 13th centuries. These songs and chants, composed to inspire reflection and inner peace, are a welcome respite in the rush and madness of today's modern world. Selections include music of visionary Hildegard von Bingen, several instrumental pieces and various anonymous works. Included in this release is a bonus CD sampler of Deutsche Harmonia Mundi recordings from the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical repertoire featuring composers such as Purcell, Scarlatti, Vivaldi, Bach and Couperin.
