Bonum Est: a programme on Gregorian Chant. Hervé Lamy – Le Livre d’Heures de Charlemagne; Gregorian hymns to honour Charles the Great.
28 of January is the holy day of Charles the Great. In the 12th episode of Bonum Est you will hear songs that were collected to honour Charles. One can wonder what would have been left of the musical memory of the first millennium if Charles the Great had not existed.Tenor Hervé Lamy sings about Charles the Great as the conqueror and the builder, the educator and the king, the anointed, the priest and the crowned.
