Spirit and Splendor: Schütz & Handel

  • Cathedral of St. John the Divine 1047 Amsterdam Avenue New York, NY, 10025 United States (map)

Heinrich Schütz’s Musikalische Exequien — the first German requiem — is rich in its choral textures and variation. The splendor of Handel’s famously challenging Dixit Dominus showcases the virtuosity of the Musica Sacra Chorus with a marvelous cast of soloists. These and other gems of the Baroque era have been signature works throughout Musica Sacra’s 60 years of music making!
