Veri floris

Information

Veri floris sub figura
quem produxit radix pura
cleri nostri pia cura
florem fecit mysticum.

Beneath the figure of a true flower,
which was produced by a pure root,
the holy care of our clergy
has fashioned a mystic flower.

”The notes on the origin of the Latin lyrics are as follows: ’Anonymous conductus: Notre Dame, France 13th century. From manuscript: Florence, Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, pluteo 29.1.’ – The title refers to ’the flower of truth’, and the lyrics compare faith to a vibrant red flower.” – Anders Jormin

Veri floris is recorded by the Polish choir Camerata Silesia and Anders Jormin: Ama, Footprint Records FRCD 094.
