Frances White - Canticle (for harp and recorded sound) // Danielle Kuntz #ambientmusic Danielle Kuntz, New Music Harpist 2025-08-11 | Canticle (2023) - Frances White (@RoseWhiteMusic)"The composer, poet, and saint Hildegard von Bingen has always been profoundly important tome. The texts of her chants often praise Divine Wisdom (Sapientia) and Divine Love (Caritas),which are feminine manifestations of the “ultimate mystery of creation”. Though Canticle doesnot directly quote Hildegard's work, her sonic world haunts the music."In Canticle, the harp part begins as a kind of invocation, a summoning forth. The electronic partbegins as just a faint aura around the harp, then proceeds to grow and develop, until finallytaking on a full presence before drawing to closure in a mysterious twilight." -Frances WhiteThis piece was made possible by generous funding provided by the New Jersey State Council on the ArtsPerformed by Danielle Kuntz, pedal harpLearn more about Frances at rosewhitemusic.comStay in touch with Danielle and learn about upcoming livestreams and other performances: daniellekuntz.com/subscribeConnect with me on SOCIAL:Facebook: facebook.com/daniellekuntz Instagram: instagram.com/daniellekuntz Twitter: twitter.com/daniellekharp Copyright 2025 Danielle E.
