CHORISTRY IN CONCERT​
​

In Gloria Dei Patri - Sacred Polyphony of Renaissance and Baroque Italy

9/8/2015

 
HOLY TRINITY CHURCH, KEW

Join Choristry for a journey through the beautiful music of Italy’s 16th and 17th centuries, a period of stylistic change.

Our programme begins with the grandfather of Italian polyphony, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, and visits some of the great composers who ushered in this musical revolution.

From the tortured genius of composer-prince and murderer Carlo Gesualdo, to the gloriously lush work of Antonio Lotti, we will present a selection of repertoire from the real musical movers and shakers of this period, along with lesser-known composers such as Felice Anerio and Antonio Caldara.

This feast of sumptuous singing will haunt you, uplift you, and stir the senses.
