Visit to the Sepulcher (1979)

Music. A beautifully sung, authentically staged production of the 12th-century medieval resurrection play Visit to the Sepulcher (Visitatio Sepulchri) at the Abbey St. Benoit de Fleury in the Loire Valley of France, the original and traditional site of its presentation. This is the 1979 reenactment, performed by the Washington Cathedral choristers (http://www.medieval.org/emfaq/cds/cwn0v.htm), not the remastered 2002 version. 4 stars.
