About In a Medieval Garden

The roots of our beloved classical music spring from prehistory, from the primordial forest of sacred chant and sung poetry illuminated by an occasional star like Saint Hildegard of Bingen, the Twelfth Century mystic called The Sibyl of the Rhine. Visionary composers based in Nôtre Dame de Paris gave us intricately woven multi-part sacred music, while aristocratic troubadours and trouvères such as Guiot de Dijon, a Thirteenth Century Burgundian poet, sang of courtly love. A century later, Guillaume de Machaut, the last artist equally skilled in poetry and music, created a unique Gothic vocal architecture.
These treasures of the past will be brought to life for you on the concert stage by Vajra Voices, musical scholars and exquisite performers.
