Special guests:

Rosa Barocca

Opening the season is 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 be reverberating in this unforgettable season launch as Luminous Voices is joined by Rosa Barocca and specialized instrumentalists from across the continent.
