Hildegard von Bingen - Female composer and patron saint of creativity

I had heard of Hildegard von Bingen briefly as a student at music conservatory, but I became acquainted with her more personally when I actually played the character of Hildegard of Bingen in a Christmas pageant and sang one of her compositions while two teenagers danced a beautiful ballet routine which depicted the blooming of flowers.

Although not included on my debut album, Voices of Women, I hope to include one of Hildegard von Bingen’s works on the Voices of Women recital series planned for Spring 2020.
