Subject: [MUSICOLOGY-ALL] Online panel discussion: Women in Sacred Chant: Past and Present
To: <MUSICOL...@jiscmail.ac.uk>


City, University of London's Department of Music and Cappella Romana are delighted to present:

‘Women in Sacred Chant: Past and Present'
April 13, 2021: 18.00–19.30 BST, 1:00pm-2:30pm Eastern, and 10:00am-11:30am Pacific via Zoom

A panel discussion celebrating the vocal ensemble Cappella Romana’s release of Hymns of Kassianí<https://cappellaromana.org/kassiani/>, a recording of newly edited medieval Byzantine chants by the 9th-century composer and poet Kassía.  Moderated by Professor Susan Ashbrook Harvey (Brown) and introduced by Professor Alexander Lingas (City and Cappella Romana).

Panelists will explore the role of women — as composers and as performers — in sacred Western and Eastern chant from ancient times to the present day, including music by Kassianí (Kassía) and Hildegard of Bingen. This is a history often marginalized or even disregarded in general histories of Christianity, yet it has been — and continues to be — important to the continuing vitality of sacred music as an art form and as a crucial mode of religious expression.

Registration is free at: https://city-ac-uk.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_2H1Louz0TqyRrORFMmCHvw
