Coro Innominata, a chamber choir in Sydney, invites you to the second concert of its 2010 subscription series, Love, Light and Drama.

 

Sacred Love and Mystery

Musical Director - Wayne Glass

3pm, Sunday 29 August 2010

St. Scholastica's Chapel, 4 Avenue Rd, Glebe NSW

 

For centuries, humankind has searched for its place in the universe, seeking guidance from spiritual and mystical sources. Music has often played an important role in this journey, from a simple means of declamation to a magnificent illumination of sacred text. Through works by Palestrina, Britten, Salamone Rossi, the contemporary American composer Frank Ferko and others, we offer a glimpse at the ways composers have taken the ideas of sacred love, devotion and mystery, and used music to enhance the individual journey.
