SUMMARY:ST. HILDEGARD OF BINGEN
DESCRIPTION:This retreat will provide a general overview of Saint Hildegard’s life. Still\, it will focus especially on her music\, particularly through studying her viriditas\, or ‘greenness’ concept\, and its influence on her music. In addition to listening to some of her music\, there will be an opportunity to discuss liturgy and chant. Finally\, we will form a little Schola and sing through some of St Hildegard’s music and some of Fr Angelus’ music as well. Though this is primarily a music-themed retreat\, being a musician or having a singing voice is not required\, only an interest in this great Benedictine Saint. \n  \nPresenter:  FR. ANGELUS ECHEVERRY\, OSB\, has been a monk of Valyermo since 2011. He has a Master’s degree in Classical Music Composition and is currently an Organist and Choirmaster. He has a deep love for what he calls “The four ‘M’s’ of my life”: Music\, the Mystical life\, the Holy Mystery that we call the Trinity and Mary\, the Blessed Virgin\, Mother of God. To listen to the Music of Fr. Angelus\, visit: www.angelusecheverry.com \n  \n*If the event is listed as sold out\, please call us at 661-944-2178 for real-time availability and a waiting list.
