St Mary's, 38 Norton St, BallinaStep into the captivating realm of Vox Caldera Chamber Choir as they present a journey through seven centuries of sacred choral music.
Central works are two extended motets for double choir by J S Bach, the imploring Komm, Jesu, komm, and the comforting Fürchte dich nicht.
Three Renaissance works offer a diversity in styles of polyphony: the English Byrd’s yearning Ne Irascaris, Domine, the Italian Lotti’s devoted Crucifixus, and Flemish Josquin’s tender pilgrimage Ave Christe, immolate. Bruckner’s 19th-century motet Os Justi recalls these older polyphonic forms, and a more ancient modal tonality. Complementing the polyphonic works, Messiaen’s 20th-century jewel O Sacrum Convivium bids us to come together in warm homophonic harmonies.
Come and immerse yourself in this very special choral music journey by Vox Caldera.
