CLAUDIO MONTEVERDI: VESPERS OF 1610

Our recently established tradition of a New Year’s Eve celebration continues!

Join us for the only performance in Philadelphia honoring Claudio Monteverdi’s 450th birthday with his breathtaking and revolutionary Vespro della Beata Vergine (1610)Be transported into the soaring strains of solemn vespers as Venetians would have in 1610 at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Mark.
 
For this performance, we are joined by the members of Dark Horse Consort, an ensemble dedicated to the brass music of the early 17th century.

The splendor of Monteverdi’s dazzling instrumental writing will be revealed as the Vespers floods the mind and heart with music ranging from intimate love songs to rapturously grand double chorus settings.
