Saturday 19 October 2024 - Calgary’s professional chamber choir, Luminous Voices, opens the season with a “cannot miss” event: Monteverdi’s rarely performed 1610 Vespero della Beata Vergine. Considered groundbreaking and a masterpiece of the early Baroque, it includes virtuosic vocal and instrumental writing and ornamentation in combination with opulent antiphonal choruses and intimate solos, duets and trios. The Bella will come alive in this unforgettable season launch as Luminous Voices is joined by Kerry Bursey, tenor, along with Rosa Barocca and its specialized instrumentalists from across the continent. -
