Renowned early-music vocal ensemble presents 'Transcendence to Transparency,' a before-and-after look at the changing face of sacred music in Europe during the Reformation, in Glencairn Museum’s Great Hall. The program includes Latin and vernacular works by some of the greatest composers who lived through this tumultuous time: Johann Walter, Jacob Clemens non Papa, and Thomas Tallis.
Praised for their “polished singing” and for “instilling their superb performances with liveliness and theatricality” (The Boston Musical Intelligencer) and for their “brilliant and moving” programming (Early Music America magazine), Les Canards Chantants is a solo-voice ensemble committed to dynamic interpretation of renaissance polyphony. The “singing ducks” have performed to high acclaim in the UK, Germany, and China, and are now based in Philadelphia, where they are musical Ensemble in Residence at Glencairn Museum.
Doors open at 7:00pm for the 7:30 concert. Tickets: 267.502.2990 thru 5/24; after 5/24, at the door.
