Reviews
[Kaldis] has put together a collection of fifteen musical pieces extending from the fourth century A.D. to modern times in order to illustrate the enduring diversity and beauty of Latin verses and the equally beautiful music which they...inspired. ...Both the text and the cassette should whet our appetite for learning more about the role of Latin songs and hymns in the Western tradition and the kinds of artistic expression they prompted.
The Classical Outlook
In sum, it is fair to say that the author has achieved her purposes. Teachers can use this publication to good advantage in their second or third year classes to enrich the student's experience and to expand their appreciation of Latin verses through the ages. Both the text and the cassette should whet our appetites for learning more about the role of Latin songs and hymns in the western tradition and the kinds of artistic expression they prompted.
