“…In questo ambito, insieme ad altre importanti figure femminili della Chiesa di Oriente, non possono non essere menzionate due grandi sante della Chiesa di Occidente, Ildegarda di Bingen e Brigida di Svezia, e Isabella Leonarda, religiosa novarese, vissuta nel XVII secolo. Nei secoli XVI, XVII e metà del XVIII, infatti, pur in un clima non sempre favorevole, fiorì un repertorio musicale legato ai monasteri e ai conventi femminili, un repertorio parallelo e paragonabile per qualità a quello profano. …”
