Behind the high walls of seventeenth-century Italian convents was hidden some of the most glorious music you have ever heard. Raphaella Aleotti, Isabella Leonarda and many other nuns composed works of astonishing beauty solely for the glory of God. Now the uncloistered laity can hear this sublime msuic.

"women composers, all new to the current catalogue, their music exquisitely sung - a delightful find." � BBC Music Magazine
