jan 1, 1152 - O pulchrae facies
Description:
Composer: HildegardIt was written between 1151 and 1152 CE, shortly following the convent’s move from Disibodenberg to Rupertsberg. It is an artistic and theological commentary explaining Hidegard’s visions in a way that could be understood by other theologically-educated individuals. In these works, Hildegard specifically focuses on sanctification of one’s virginity to attain access to the Kingdom of God. The piece comes from a larger work called the Scivias that textually and musically describes her visions.
