Thanks, Wayne, Billy Jim, Dian and Fontaine,
I am reading "A History of Women: Silences of the Middle Ages" and there are numerous references to Hilde. I look forward to the music.

===============
yep, she also was a close confidant of the pope of
that era ... fontaine wrote some time back about a
group in austin who perform her music (the hilde
girls) ...
they are worth checking out ..
>> austin hilde girls web site:

after fontaine put up her post, i got my hands on
five of her works cd's:
(1) 'voice of the blood' [WDR]
(2) 'canticles of ecstacy' [WDR]
(3) 'vision' [Amgel]
(4) 'luminous spirit' [Koch]
and the 'tapestry' cd wayne references ...
i pop 'em into the truck cd player and find it
blocks all road-rage input and puts me in a very
peaceful state ...
such beautiful polyphonic paradise ...
'like billowing clouds,
like the incessant gurble of the brook,
the longing of the spirit can never be stilled.'
