Hildegard von Bingen - 2024 ACF Winter

Question

A chorus of Prophets and Patriarchs opens a work by this composer by marveling “Who are these, who seem like clouds?” about the title entities. For 10 points each:

[10m] Name this German abbess and composer who chronicled her mystic visions in the book Scivias.

ANSWER: Hildegard von Bingen [or Hildegard of Bingen]

[10h] Hildegard composed this sacred drama, which ends with a 39-note melisma on the word porrigat, or “reach out.” This work portrays the devil as a male vocalist who only yells and grunts, as Hildegard held that the Devil cannot produce divine harmony.

ANSWER: Ordo Virtutum [or Order of the Virtues]

[10e] Many of Hildegard’s other works, like Spiritus Sanctus Vivificans, were antiphons intended to be sung before this set of biblical texts. These 150 religious hymns are collected in the Old Testament.

ANSWER: Psalms [or the Book of Psalms]
