Tudor music meets winter celebration from the 13th century to the present, featuring Tomás Luis de Victoria’s mass and motet “O magnum mysterium”. From reflective midwinter stillness to festive revelry, The Tudor Choristers presents a lovely and varied exploration of the season’s beauty and mystery in song. Inspired by the famous mediæval round “Sumer is icumen in”, this program playfully turns toward the colder months and the rich musical and symbolic ideas associated with winter.
