Sacred Music, sung by Julie Jézéquel

Love Abounds
In All Things

Hildegard von Bingen, Caritas abundat in omnia
Next concert · 24 October 2026 · Eymet

Sacred Music is a programme of early Christian chant, most of it from the Middle Ages, that Julie Jézéquel sings as a single prayer, with no words between the songs, so that each one can flow into the next like a breath.

The next concert is on Saturday 24 October 2026, in the church of Eymet.

With gratitude to all the voices that carried these songs across the centuries to reach us.
