Description

In this concert, a Sine Nomine small ensemble presents Renaissance choral music written in honor of female saints, including Saints Anne, Barbara, Catherine and Joan of Arc, as well as Saint Cecilia, the patroness of music. We will offer motets and songs by composers Dufay, Mouton, Gombert, Palestrina, Guerrero, and Philips plus portions of the rarely performed 'Missa de Sancta Anna' by Pierre de la Rue. We hope you can join us for this unusual concert offering! Free, with donations welcome.
