CLASSICAL: 12th Annual Rochester Early Music Festival

by

Musica Spei presents and performs as part of the 12th Annual Rochester Early Music Festival. Musica Spei performs a cappella style from a vast repertoire of rarely performed, sacred choral masterworks of the Medieval and Renaissance periods. Also performing will be Pegasus Early Music, the Amadeus Chorale, Eastman Collegium Baroque Orchestra and Viol Consort, Baroquen Bones, Publick Musick, and organists Christopher Wilke and T. Woolard Harris. The concert is performed prism-style, as music flows from one piece to the next, and performers position themselves everywhere from the front of the church to its upper balcony and along the aisles. WXXI's Brenda Tremblay is the hostess for the evening. A free reception follows for the audience and performers.
