If the Invisible made Visible is a way of describing an artist’s conception of an Angel, then for those other masterpieces, the works of a musician’s craft, one might say that the Inaudible becomes Audible. Out of silence the composer creates something that enables us to recapture an echo of Gabriel’s resounding AVE at the Annunciation. We hear the song of the Angels at the Birth of Christ and we catch a phrase or two of the unending worship of the heavenly Seraphim. These angelic utterances are recorded here, together with many chants describing the activities of the holy Angels.
