"Sacred Songs" brings eerie minimalism to meditative drone. Sándor Vály and Júlia Heéger's monochrome masterpiece of Medieval overtones is augmented with brutal feedback noise, while Heéger’s bewitching vocal springs from monophonic sacred music. With superb tension-building, these musical recordings and releases pay tribute to Europe's first female composer Hildegard Von Bingen - the diverse and ramifying German mystic, the naturalist abbess, whose work spread into the fields of natural science, of medicine, of poetry and of music. This work gives rise to dance; to sacred dance and to provocation; to one of the oldest and purest forms of communication, as old as mankind. It is a question on the absence of dance in churches, when every other artform is present - the separation of body and soul; the elevation of the spiritual world and the rejection of the body. Digipak with booklet. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
