Work & Edition Details
This piece for solo female voice is based on the medieval legend of St Ursula, which was a great inspiration to abbess Hildegard of Bingen (who wrote many Latin liturgical texts in her honour in the mid-twelfth century, originally designed to be sung to her own chant melodies). The legend concerns an English princess who, with a group of virgin followers (11,000 seems to have been a scribe's error), was set upon by a band of marauders while travelling on pilgrimage through the German empire. When the women refused to submit to rape, they were massacred instead.
