Celebrate the season with Claudio Monteverdi's transcendent Vespers for the Blessed Virgin, an evening prayer service for chorus, soloists, and instrumentalists. This tour-de-force sold-out performance by the Handel and Haydn Society, Boston's renowned period-instrument ensemble, under the direction of the esteemed conductor Harry Christophers and led by captivating concertmaster Aisslinn Nosky, highlights the grace and mystery of this timeless work of praise.
The Vespers draws on elements of the sacred and the secular, from sonatas to songs, in a moving display of reverence, passion, and virtuosity that changed the course of polyphonic music. Originally presented in ecclesiastical spaces like the Basilica di San Marco in Venice, this Vespers is staged in the sublime Temple of Dendur in The Sackler Wing.
