For this revised edition of Hildegard's liturgical song cycle, Barbara Newman has redone her prose translations of the songs, updated the bibliography and discography, and made other minor changes. Also included is an essay by Marianne Richert Pfau which delineates the connection between music and text in the Symphonia.Famous throughout Europe during her lifetime, Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was a composer and a poet, a writer on theological, scientific, and medical subjects, an abbess, and a visionary prophet. One of the very few female composers of the Middle Ages whose work has survived, Hildegard was neglected for centuries until her liturgical song cycle was rediscovered. Songs from it are now being performed regularly by early music groups, and more than twenty compact discs have been recorded. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Her introduction discusses some of the difficulty facing a translator of poetry and of the Symphonia in particular, and explains some of her choices:
We have some of Hildegard's music, as well as her texts. I found both CDs and MP3s available for sale at Amazon -- and in my very first venture into this modern world of buying and downloading music, I was able to purchase a single track, O Ignis Spiritus (O Fiery Spirit), to play at class tonight while I read the English verse translation to begin my class presentation on ecological pneumatology.
