     Fragments for the End of Time
     From the time of Christianitys introduction into Central
     Europe until well after the end of the first millennium,
     medieval poets created a powerful body of sung poetry, often
     using obscure visionary images and language, to prepare
     listeners for the End of Days and the Last Judgement. Some of
     these images and words were borrowed from pre-Christian,
     Germanic sources. In this unique recording of largely unknown
     repertoires, Sequentia explores the musical world of these
     surprising and powerful apocalyptic texts -- some of them
     surviving only as fragments û as they were heard by early
     medieval Christians in Aquitaine and in German-speaking lands.
