Stuttgart’s Voca Me ensemble presents the music of the 9th Century Byzantine composer Kassia, the earliest known female composer (predating Hildegard von Bingen by 200 years).
Haunting voices and intuitive arrangements transport listeners to a long-lost age, immersing them in the mysticism of Constantinople. As an emancipated, free thinking, and extraordinarily gifted woman, Kassia was a legend in the intellectual and artistic life of her time.
