Music from the Time of the Crusades
Medieval writers believed that the name
Jerusalem meant "vision of peace", yet devotion to the holy city found its keenest expression in the crusades of the 12th and 13th centuries. Gothic Voices explore the music from this time, including plainchant and polyphony from Europe, and Hildegard of Bingen's setting of a Respond for the Feast of Martyrs, Vos Flores Rosarum.
