Cappella Romana: New Worlds In Eastern Orthodox Church Music
Jun 24, 2016 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
The world-renowned vocal ensemble CAPPELLA ROMANA (“simply beautiful” –The New York Times) performs “New Worlds in Eastern Orthodox Church Music.” This concert takes place prior to European engagements in London (UK), St-Hubert and Namur (Belgium) and the Utrecht Early Music Festival (Netherlands).
In this program Cappella Romana explores new horizons in Orthodox Church music: The stunning Requiem by Serbian composer Stevan Hristic, Finnish works that unite Scandinavian crystalline textures with Russian church singing, and a world premiere by Kurt Sander (from Cinncinnati), heard in the warm acoustics of John Carroll University’s St. Francis Chapel.
