about

Hildegard von Bingen was a German abbess, mystic, writer and composer.  Given to the Catholic Church by her parents at the age of eight, Hildegard flourished under the creative atmosphere she found there, writing lyric poetry, biographies, works on medicine, natural history, and accounts of her personal mystical experiences. She is perhaps best remembered for her musical compositions intended for use at the convents, many of which have been preserved.  Hildegard’s songs generally praise saints or martyrs, and the majority are addressed to feminine religious figures such as Saint Ursula and the Virgin Mary.  O quam mirabilis is Hildegard’s depiction of the miracle of creation.
