Museum Concerts brings the award-winning British vocal ensemble Gesualdo Six to Providence to perform English motets on Sunday, November 3rd, 3:30 p.m. at the First Unitarian Church, 1 Benevolent Street, Providence, RI.
The Gesualdo Six has quickly established itself as one of the premier early music vocal ensembles in the world. They have performed at numerous major festivals around the globe over the last ten years as well as produced nine acclaimed recordings in that time.
The program of English motets will consist of Renaissance masters over two hundred years, encompassing ornate early pieces by Pygott and Cornysh, intricately woven polyphonic works by Tallis and Byrd, and the beautiful simplicity of Mundy and Tomkins. “Ingeniously programmed and impeccably delivered, with that undefinable excitement that comes from a group of musicians working absolutely as one.” – Gramophone Magazine
