PageCXVI is celebrating their 7-year anniversary by making their entire music catalog free to download for the entire month of March!
What is Page CXVI, you ask?
Let me tell you:
“Page CXVI is a project started with the idea of making hymns accessible and known again. They are some of the richest, most meaningful, and moving pieces of music ever written.”
If that wasn’t cool enough, their website goes on to say where their name comes from:
“The name comes from a reference to page 116 in our copy of The Magician’s Nephew by C.S. Lewis. It is a poignant passage where Aslan begins to sing Narnia into creation out of a black void.
It starts, ‘In the darkness something was happening at last. A voice had begun to sing. It was very far away and Digory found it hard to decide from what direction it was coming. Sometimes it seemed to come from all directions at once. Sometimes he almost thought it was coming out of the earth beneath them. Its lower notes were deep enough to be the voice of the earth herself. There were no words. There was hardly even a tune. But it was, beyond comparison, the most beautiful noise he had ever heard. It was so beautiful he could hardly bear it.’ ~ C.S. Lewis”
Get the full catalog during the month of March 2013.
