Info for Hildegard von Bingen: Ordo Virtutum

Only a single manuscript transmits Hildegard’s ordo virtutum: the Wiesbaden Codex (also known as the Rupertsberger Riesencodex), which was started in the scriptorium of her monastery in Bingen during the last years of her life and finished after her death. Today it is considered to be her legacy: Hildegard has not only the authoress of the individual works collected here, but also had influence on the overall composition of the codex. She wanted her work to be transmitted only in this and not in any other way. The giant codex begins with her first work Scivias - Direction. It concludes with her songs in neumatic notation: first, the seventy-five that she wrote for the canonical hours, followed by the sacred music play ordo virtutum. It remains uncertain then and for that occasion it was written. An early, purely test version is found already at the end of Scivias. Its title as preserved in the giant codex combines two key words from Hildegard’s complete theology: ordo and virtus.
