Choral Concert celebrates the Renaissance

The Renaissance is considered one of the most extraordinary periods in history for choral music. Some of the most beautiful and luminescent music of all time comes from the pen of the renaissance masters.

On this week’s choral concert, Peter Togni will bring you some of the finest performances on disc from this period – with music by Palestrina, Monteverdi, and ThomasTallis.

The centerpiece of the show will be devoted to a new release by the Sixteen, one of the world’s finest choral ensembles, led by Harry Christophers.

Don’t forget that CBCMUSIC.CA has lots to offer for classical music lovers, You can check out the Choral Concert blog and the 24/7 choral stream plus extensive videos and concerts in all genres.
