This CD, the organic continuation of the previous recording “Apocalypsis”, is the middle section of a trilogy. “Tempora”, the final section of the “Triptychon”, will be released next year. The motets on the recording, as the modern compositions are musical adaptations of the story of creation in various approaches. At the dawn of a new millennium, at the end of a millenium; a view through the past and into the future, of the world and humanity’s birth, fate and place in the circle of life.

500 years ago Albrecht Dürer published a series of 15 woodcuts based on the Book of Revelations entitled “Apocalipsis cum figuris”. This artisitc work of eternal value supplied the inspiration for this singing group which was formed in 1993. Here they have successfully made a synthesis of the text, the picture and music. The music is built upon the works of four rennaisance masters (Clemens, Gombert, Lasso, Porta), Gregorian elements, and the works of a young Hungarian contemporary composer Bánk Sáry. The final result is a splendid recording, extraordinary in its own art form. The record appears in the stores with a handsomely packaged, tasteful graphic design on the cover and an added booklet of informational text.
