About This Song
About "Laudario di Cortona (Excerpts Arr. P. Hillier for Vocal Ensemble): No. 37, Sia laudato san Francesco" by Ars Nova Copenhagen
This Cortona lauda, arranged by Paul Hillier, pulses with medieval fervor. 'Sia laudato san Francesco' is a sunlit procession—voices circling like pilgrims around a shrine. Beneath the plainchant simplicity, a quiet urgency: praise as both release and demand, the ensemble balancing archaic purity with living breath.
