In 1152, Hildegard von Bingen finished her Ordo Virtutum (The Order of the Virtues). In 1971 Pauline Oliveros published her first book of Sonic Meditations. Today we are bringing together two women, 800 years apart, who lived their lives fully in sound.

Our world can make us feel exhausted, burnt out, and lonely but it is also full of beauty and hope. These are women that knew that to find beauty sometimes all you needed to do was listen with care. Here we will tell the story of a saint. A saint who survived her own church and built a better one.

Here is the story of ourselves. How we survive and how we grow with the help and guidance of our virtues.
