Hildegard of Bingen and the Living Light

In this one-woman play, international mezzo soprano Linn Maxwell embodies the extraordinary life of twelfth-century German prophetess, healer, and composer Hildegard of Bingen.

Through the mystic's actual writings and letters, she transports us to the turbulent times of the crusades. Accompanying herself on authentic medieval instruments, Linn performs seven of Hildegard's original songs.
