The Sixteen: Monteverdi Vespers of 1610
Start time: 7.30pm
The Sixteen perform one of the cornerstones of the classical repertoire, Monteverdi's monumental Vespers of 1610, famed for its thrilling rhythms, grand choruses and beautiful solo movements. Harry Christophers says "the Vespers is one of the most significant collections of sacred music ever written." We will follow Monteverdi's dictum recitar cantando - speak through singing - to maximum effect, bringing this glorious work to life in the wonderful acoustics of some of the UK's finest cathedrals. Tickets: £30, £25, £15 available online from the Cathedral Box Office or by phone on 01962 857 275. Concessions for Under 18’s students registered disabled and carers and job seekers. Doors open at 7pm concert starts at 7.30pm.
