Story Behind The Song
This gorgeous piece found itself arranged into this world percussion and voice arrangement in a way that has never been done before.
Song Description
This piece is pristine and should be highlighted in tv/film that brings travel, mystery and/or "other worldliness" into the scene, meditation or spirituality. Hildegard von Bingen's "O Virgo Splendensic" ("O Resplendent Virgen") is a perfect melody for such power and simultaneous simplicity.

Lyrics
O resplendent Virgin, here on the high mountains
glowing with miraculous wonders,where the believers from everywhere ascend
Ah, with your gentle loving eye behold those caught in the bonds of sin to let them not suffer the blows but let them be with the blessed by your intercession.
