Treasures
The Company of Music presents treasures from five centuries of vocal music and invites the audience to help shape the program: As a visitor:in of the concert, you can help determine parts of it during the period between July 10 and July 31. The musical treasure trove opened by the Company of Music includes works by composers from the golden age of Dutch vocal polyphony, such as Antoine Brumel, or by Gregorio Allegri, singer of the Roman Cappella Sistina in the Vatican, whose mystical Miserere was kept secret for centuries and sung exclusively there on Good Friday. In addition to compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach, the exquisite compilation also includes masterpieces from modern and contemporary times, for example by the recently deceased Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho.
