SHOLA CANTORUM RIGA - ILLUMINA

2006


Artis Gāga, saxophone Sergejs Jēgers, countertenor This album is a compilation of various spiritual chants on the subject of LIGHT. The concept of ILLUMINA is based on the point of intersection and synthesis of two different ages and musical styles. On the one hand these are medieval chants for male voices, including the beautiful melodious Gregorian plainsongs, Ambrosian hymns, medieval dancing songs, an ancient Jewish song Ma Navu and interesting samples of early polyphony. On the other hand - saxophone and percussion improvisations.
