About
Footprint Records is proud to present the album Ave Maris Stella, featuring Schola Gothia from Gothenburg, Sweden.
This marks the group's fifth album, the first released under the Footprint label, showcasing music from the time of Saint Bridget in the 14th century and from the collection Cantus sororum, the song of the sisters in the Bridgettine order at Vadstena Abbey.
Schola Gothia is a professional vocal quartet from Sweden with a distinctive performance practice of music from the early medieval period.
Led by Ulrike Heider, who received her education in the Netherlands, including a program in medieval ensemble singing, the group also comprises Helene Stensgård Larsson, Sabina Nilsson, and Yvonne Carlsson, all educated at the Academy of Music and Drama at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden.
In their musicianship, Schola Gothia aims to revive music found in monastic manuscripts from the 10th to the 15th century. Their repertoire includes Gregorian chant as well as early polyphonic music, with a preference for using original notation whenever possible.
Formed in 1999, the quartet has performed numerous concerts, both locally in and around Gothenburg, and in other parts of Sweden. They have also toured internationally, visiting several European countries, as well as Japan and Guatemala, and have collaborated with many distinguished musicians and ensembles.
The album is mixed in Dolby Atmos.
