Sacred Music in Slovakia from Sources of the 11th-17th Centuries features Gregorian plainchant comes from manuscript codices dating from the 11th to the 16th centuries, set in the context of the vocal polyphonic repertoire from 17th-century Spiš and Šariš sources. The selection of compositions on the recording is thematically based on two five-voice polyphonic works — Magnificat octavi toni by David Thusius and the anonymous Te Boha chwalime — taken from the Levoča Music Collection and the Ľubica Hymnal.
Additional sources of the repertoire include the Bratislava Antiphonaries, the Spiš Missal, the Bardejov Music Collection, and other manuscripts. The selected works were recorded by the vocal-instrumental ensemble Ad Fontes Musical Ensemble under the artistic direction of Sylvia Urdová.
