SynopsisHildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) lived in Germany during the Middle Ages. When she was 14, she was sent to live a life of religious devotion. At the convent, she began writing music. During her lifetime, she was a renowned author of several books about religion, art, politics, philosophy, science, medicine, and herbs. Harpist, Monica Schley, has carefully arranged 20 of Hildegard's songs for folk harp. Taken from Gregorian Chant, chord progressions and harmonies have been added to create a rich collection of harp arrangements. These songs have an inherent therapeutic nature, perfect for relaxing and personal enjoyment, as well as playing in settings where spiritual and physical healing are enhanced by music. Arranged for the beginning to intermediate player, these songs are crafted for the 34-string folk harp and have some lever changes. Many songs are modal. The book includes tunes such as O Rubor Sanguinis; Deus Anim Rorem; Deus Enim; Unde Quocumque; O Cruror Sanguinis and O Frondens Virga.
