Lost in Contemplation

Four remarkable medieval miracle stories are each paired with music from across Europe.

From the contemplative vision of Ero the monk and Saint Elizabeth’s Miracle of the Roses to English songs honouring the Virgin Mary and the extraordinary life of Joseph of Schönau, these tales reveal the medieval imagination at its most profound.

Music from the Cantigas de Santa Maria, Machaut, Binchois and Oswald von Wolkenstein accompanies stories that explore faith, transformation, and the intersection of the miraculous with human experience.
