Notes & Reviews:

Anima mea explores the Christian concept of the soul through these masterpieces of medieval Sacred Music. Hildegard of Bingen's beautifully exalted harmonies represent God's order in the music of the spheres. The recently rediscovered Erfurt Ritual contains sung music from Master Eckhart's historical context. These antiphons are performed here for the first time since 1525, along with chants from the liturgy of the Roman mass, music from the Notre Dame School, and a glorious Magnificat. The German duo Ensemble Cosmedin, who take their name from a church in Rome, are considered one of the leading ensembles for medieval and modern sacred music. Music of the soul - gentle and luminous. Stephanie and Christoph Haas established the Ensemble Cosmedin in 1998, and it is today considered one of the leading ensembles for medieval and modern sacred music. It has a number of recordings and television and radio features to its credit.
