Featuring music composed and published during the German composer's visit to Venice in 1629. The 1630 plague outbreak in Northern Italy devastated Venice: one third of the population succumbed to disease. With obvious parallels to the present day, we explore expressions of faith set to music by Schütz and his Venetian contemporaries Monteverdi, Grandi, and Cifra.

2022 marks the 350th anniversary of the death of Heinrich Schütz, the undisputed giant of the early German baroque. Although he is not as well known as Bach and Handel, his music is rich and expressive and deserving of much greater exposure. Howard Dyck maintains that “Bach and Handel’s fabulous compositions are unthinkable without the antecedent masterpieces of Heinrich Schütz”. The greater part of his large output was created in the crucible of the Thirty Years’ War. Musikalische Exequien, his best-known work, was composed in 1635 or 1636 for the funeral of Count Heinrich II of Reuss-Gera. It will be the main work on this concert which features nationally and internationally recognized artists, including soprano Sinéad White, countertenor, Daniel Taylor, tenor Rufus Müller, and baritone Jonathan Adams.
The program also features The Ways of Zion do Mourn, composed in 1737 by Handel for the funeral of Queen Caroline.
