Accompanied by violins and basso continuo, the BACH choir will present Baroque works composed by Italian convent musicians.

About this event

Despite frequent opposition from church authorities, Italian nuns maintained a rich musical life behind convent walls during the Baroque era. BACH will present sacred music by Isabella Leonarda, Maria Xaveria Peruchona, and others, along with madrigals by Vittoria Aleotti and Maddalena Casulana.

Please note masks are required.

BACH is committed to the health and safety of our community. The BACH choir is up-to-date on COVID vaccines and sings fully masked. We ask, where possible, that audience members also be vaccinated or have a negative test before attending the concert.
