Yesssss. :-))
And never forget to play her music while you read
material about Hildegard von Bingen! When I find a
text of her or about her on the net, I put the CD with
Hildegard's Symphoniae in the drive, start to play it
and close my eyes. As the music does its magic to me,
I begin to feel the mood and scenery of the monastery
where she created all of her writings, music and of
course Lingua Ignota. After the music has gently settled
my mind in the twelveth century, I open my eyes and
read the text on the screen.

Take care,

Harald
