Chanticleer performs Hildegard von Bingen
My first experience with the music of Hildegard von Bingen was when David Lynch and his partner John Neff produced Jocelyn Montgomery's "Lux Vixen" back in 1998 which featured interpretations of compositions by the medieval mystic. Since then I've picked up additional recordings of her work and any books I could find to learn more about her life.
I was disappointed to find out that the internationally reknown Chanticleer had just performed an original music-theater piece titled, Hildegard: A Measure of Joy at St. Joseph's Cathedral (practically in our back yard) and we hadn't heard a word about it. But here's the good news... there are two more performances in the Bay Area. Tickets are almost gone so act quickly if you're interested.
