The Tallis Scholars, Mysteries and Miracles

Presented by Cal Performances

The Tallis Scholars perform an Easter season program featuring works inspired by miraculous events in the biblical story of Jesus’ life. Victoria’s seminal Missa O magnum mysterium, celebrating the miracle of the virgin birth, is the concert’s centerpiece, amplified by motets by Tallis, de Wert, and Slovenian composer Jacobus Gallus exploring Christian themes of wonder and awe. Contemporary Estonian composer Arvo Pärt illuminates Christ’s teachings in his Tribute to Caesar, and marvels at the appearance of the Virgin of Guadalupe in Virgencita.
