A fascinating concept: a collection of liturgical chants centred around the figure of St.Agnes and other martyred virgins. Drawing a line through history, this set of chants reflect the century long abuse of women in every conceivable way, and in cultures all over the world.
The extensive text in the booklet is a plea for female freedom, equal rights, respect and peace, regardless of religion or culture.
New recordings, by the SCHOLA CANTORUM KAROLUS MAGNUS, who already presented on Brilliant Classics such imaginative concepts as Imago Christi (Images of Christ in Gregorian Chant) and Media Vita (reflections on death in the midst of life).
48-page booklet, containing extensive notes about the project by the artists, and complete texts of the chants, poems and readings in Latin, English and Dutch.
