Cappella Pratensis
Music Before 1800 presents
A Requiem for All Souls
The Gramophone Award-winning ensemble Cappella Pratensis presents two of the earliest surviving polyphonic settings of the Mass for the Dead: the first by Ockeghem, whose dark and sinuous counterpoint seems almost otherworldly; and the second, a brighter setting by the younger Pierre de la Rue. Evoking the sights and sounds of medieval music, the eight singers of Cappella Pratensis perform huddled around a single choirbook, conjuring an intense and intimate soundworld.
Sunday, November 2 at 5 pm
