This edition of the Song of Songs (according to private communication from Mme. Lamandier) is meant to evoke the historical (if not the melodic) character of the synagogal rendition of the work (which was always by unaccompanied solo voice). So arranged, the Song is used as a vehicle for the brilliance and passion of the artiste's voice. A brief excerpt from this sung text has recently been featured in the film The Gospel of John by Visual Bible International (2003).

Besides the Song of Songs, two other selections are included: Isaiah 2:1-5 and Genesis 28:10-22 ("The Ladder of Jacob"). Once again, these texts are performed without accompaniment. The entire recording was made in the Abbey of Sylvanes in 1999.

Several new CDs and CD-ROMs, plus Latinized Hebrew-English booklets for some of the original recordings, are available from King David's Harp, Inc. (e-mail). You may download and print this order form in order to obtain these recordings and CD-ROMs (see this page).
