Sacred Visions

'Sacred Visions' presents two Zorn masterpieces touching upon the mediaeval world. 'The Holy Visions' is a Mystery Play in eleven strophes concerning the life, work and philosophy of 12th century composer, healer and visionary mystic Hildegard von Bingen, and is one of Zorn's most beloved and acclaimed works for voice. Here it is coupled with Zorn's latest string quartet 'The Remedy of Fortune,' six tableaux depicting the changing fortunes of romantic love, which was inspired by the work of 12th century troubadour Guillaume de Machaut and receives a precise and passionate reading by the brilliant JACK quartet. Two wondrous modern compositions drawing on mediaeval spirituality, both sacred and secular!
