Tenebrae is one of Great Britain’s leading chamber choirs, founded in 2001 by a former member of The Tallis Scholars and The King’s Singers. Often performing by candlelight, the choir creates an atmosphere of spiritual and musical reflection, where medieval chant and Renaissance works are interspersed with contemporary compositions to create an ethereal mood of contemplation. Their “Music for Passiontide” program will include Poulenc’s Lenten Motets, selections from Gesualdo’s Tenebrae Responsories for Holy Saturday, the Allegri Miserere and the Lotti Crucifixus, and other Lenten music.
