Ave Regina

Like Pulcherrima Rosa this piece was also recorded in the church by the Calgary Renaissance Singers and Players. What makes this piece special is that it was written by a woman, an Ursuline Nun whose music was innovative and expressive. Composed during a time when the role of women was significantly repressed, Isabella Leonarda created some truely amazing works.
