About This Item
(SACD-HYBRID) The vocal group Vox Silentii (Johann Korhonen and Hikka-Liisa Vuori) was founded in 1992. The singers believe the human voice is a bridge to a world you cannot see and the heavenly connection gives you silence and peace. This is their fourth recording on the Proprius tag and was recorded in the Naantali Church outside Turku in the south-western part of Finland. The acoustics in that particular church - together with the human voice - form an atmosphere of silent, intense praying. Details 1. Helena Uesgocie, Alleluia for St. Helen of Sweden 2.
