Crucem sanctam subiit - Le Chant des Templiers


This is a fragment of the beautiful medieval antiphona: "Crucem sanctam subiit", performed by "Ensemble Organum". This piece has been found in a rare medieval manuscript from the mid XIIth century, found in the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, and that's why it's linked to the Templar Knights.

"...Lapidem quem reprobaverunt aedificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli" = "The stone that the architects rejected became the cornerstone".
