This sequence of music from the 16th and 17th centuries for choir,
brass and organ has as its spine Tomás Luis de Victoria’s mass
O magnum mysterium, which he based on his
Christmas motet of the same name. Amongst its movements will be dispersed a
sequence of motets, plainchant and instrumental pieces which will tell the
Christmas story - almost a Renaissance Carol Service, in fact.
The other composers represented will include Heinrich Schütz, Orlandus Lassus
and Michael Praetorius - a selection from his many In
dulci jubilo settings.
The concert will also explore the variety of ways in which this music
can be performed: it is a modern myth that it should always be
unaccompanied. Victoria was an organist, after all.
The concert will be followed by a light buffet supper and a glass of
wine. To make your booking, you can either email us at

or via the website, or call 020 8399 7231.
