In illo tempore: Tempus Adventus slovak

Posted in Our Recordings, Tempus Adventus April 21, 2010 at 6:07 AM

Here it is! The first CD of vocal ensemble Gregoriana called Tempus Adventus. We plan to record next parts of the edition In Illo Tempore. It’s aim is to revive the musical historical pieces from the territory of the present Slovakia up to 1600. In Slovak archives and museums such pieces cannot be counted by hundreds, but surely they deserve our attention. These are mainly the manuscript collections of the monodic (plainchant) liturgical chants, as well as the polyphonic chants of the same kind. You can read in more detail about these historical pieces in the articles of Eva Veselovská and Andrea Meščanová.
