A tribute to the grand choral traditions of Renaissance Venice, this program celebrates the striking antiphonal style known as cori spezzati—music written for split-choir ensembles in conversation. Voices and instruments echo across space in works by Bach, Schütz, Willaert, Phinot, and others, with shifting textures that highlight the drama of large and small forces. Bach’s dazzling double-choir motet Singet dem Herrn crowns the program with jubilant brilliance. We also welcome our new Artistic Director, Nate Widelitz.
