Vox Feminae
Female Paths to God in Medieval Oriental & Occidental Music


Songs from the Early Christian Oriental repertoire,
sacred songs from rural Sweden,
early polyphony from the Spanish Codex Las Huelgas.

In this program we pursue the female paths towards the cognition of God
in early and traditional sacred music from Orient and Occident:
The direct path of the heart
in traditional Early Christian music of the Middle East
and in rural songs from Northern Sweden.
Complex contemplation in medieval polyphony
as sung by
the noble and literate nuns of Las Huelgas monastery.

Miriam Andersén (Sweden)
and Fadia el-Hage (Lebanon)
perform songs from their own oral traditions
and join in the written tradition from the Spanish Codex Las Huelgas.
