Our Take

Chanting nun Hildegard Von Bingen is resurrected in the form of a collaboration between Romain Dayez and Jean-Paul Dessy on their album "Ad Lucemin." This avant-garde project takes the mystical and ethereal chants of the 12th-century composer and gives them a modern twist that will leave you feeling like you've been transported to another dimension.

From the moment you press play, you are immediately enveloped in a sonic landscape that is both haunting and hypnotic. Dayez's intricate electronic production juxtaposed with Dessy's masterful cello playing creates a unique blend of sounds that perfectly complement Von Bingen's sacred texts.

Tracks like "O Virtus Sapientiae" and "O Frondens Virga" showcase the duo's ability to seamlessly blend ancient and contemporary music, resulting in a listening experience that is truly transcendent. Each track builds upon the last, creating a cohesive journey that is both mesmerizing and thought-provoking.

While some may find the album's experimental nature challenging, those willing to embrace its eccentricities will be rewarded with a one-of-a-kind musical experience that is equal parts meditative and exhilarating. "Ad Lucemin" is a testament to the enduring power of Von Bingen's music and a testament to the creative genius of Dayez and Dessy. Dive in and let the enchanting sounds wash over you like a wave of pure sonic bliss.
