About
Suzanne and Jonathan’s dog, Hildegard Von Borken, underwent life saving surgery back in February (It was a success!) and have decided to put on a concert to help raise funds for her vet bills. They will present an eclectic spread of music written and inspired by Hildegard Von Bingen (The mystic Saint their dog is named after). This will also include the premiere of Jonathan’s set of songs written for Suzanne titled “3 Virtues” which uses chant and text from Hildegard’s “Ordo Virtutum”. Come and help support one of the goodest dogs in the city all while listening to some amazing music!
