Hildegard von Bingen
She’s was an amazing artist and personality. I have listened to her music mostly by the Anonymous 4 for some time and my wife previously while singing with the Calgary Renaissance Singers learned some of her music.
Here is a recording on YouTube by a Czech artist Hana Blochová of KVINTERNA
And here is where you can buy a DVD of her play Opus Arte. Note you can click on the button on the screen there to play a sample or watch the YouTube version below!

Girgian
I thought I had done a blog post about Girgian last year but I can’t find one.
Girgian finished last night after three nights of it. It if a mostly Kuwait tradition from way back that happens in the middle of Ramadan. This year for the first time we were prepared with sweets for the children.
It is where the children go house to house close friends and neighbours for sweets. The children are very cute in their traditional clothing. And if you ask them they will sing! Not too badly actually.
