About this concert

It was Benedict who at the beginning of the sixth century established choral prayer in his monastic rule. This rule made it possible to read the entire psalm book in a week. With the Sext and None Psallentes ends up at the midday prayers, which this time focus on Psalm 119 and the hymn Ad cenam agni providi.

About the performers

The ensemble Psallentes was founded in 2000 by singer and conductor Hendrik Vanden Abeele. The ensemble seeks out plainchant and associated polyphony from various historical periods. Particular attention is paid to plainchant of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. Insights into this are fostered by practice-based research by Vanden Abeele. Since 2007 Psallentes has been operating in male-only and female-only line-ups.
