About This Song
About "Angelus Ad Virginem" by St Paul's Cathedral Choir
A medieval angel descends in bare fifths and modal shadow. St Paul's Cathedral Choir revives the 14th-century 'Angelus ad Virginem' with austere purity, its Latin syllables like frost on glass. The tension is annunciation itself: a greeting that shatters history, sung with trembling, unadorned clarity.
