- The Opening of Act II

As the Abbess describes her plan to find and initiate the Seventh Keeper, the novices and other lead characters sing the Mass of ourLady in Latin. Brigid, Azenora, and Dympha, just like any members of a church choir, interject their feeling about what is happening in their life, instead of paying attentionto the service.
- Deborah's Aria
Gretchen Mundinger sings Deborah as she tells of her experience with Abbess Marie. As the storyprogresses she speaks to Regina, who has always hated her.
