Four Hildegard texts (2021)

Posted by sara-garrard

SSAA unaccompanied | Duration: 7 minutes | Difficulty: Moderate

Sheet music on SMP or Gumroad.

Four settings of texts by Hildegard of Bingen, individually each between 1-2 minutes. They may be performed individually or as a set. Written without any reference to the (still available!) melodies written by Hildegard — you could perform them in that context however…

  1. O mirum admirandum
  2. Vos flores rosaum
  3. O virga mediatrix
  4. O choruscans lux stellarum
IV. O choruscans lux stellarum performed by OC Women’s Chorus, 2022
O mirum admirandum NOTE: recording is a 3rd lower than the printed music.
Vos flores rosarum
O virga mediatrix
O choruscans lux stellarum

  1. Hi Sara

    I love your Hildegard Texts for clarinet choir. As a clarinet teacher I like to perform them with my clarinet choir. Where can I find the sheet music?

    Regards from Switzeland
