Chromatic Christmas with the Polyphonists

  • Church of the Ascension and St. Agnes 1217 Massachusetts Avenue Northwest Washington, DC, 20005 United States (map)

Join us for a program of music for the holiday season, presented by an award-winning vocal ensemble: Chromatic Christmas with the Polyphonists on Fri Dec 29, 2023 at 7:30 PM

This meditative program is constructed around the astonishing, nearly other-worldly “Prophetiae Sibyllarum” of Renaissance composer Orlande de Lassus. Its twelve inventive movements will be interspersed with beloved seasonal works by Howells, Poulenc, and Warlock, as well as innovative carols by Libby Larsen, Alice Parker, and more!

This singular event will take place at The Church of the Ascension & St. Agnes (1217 Massachusetts Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20005).

Don't miss out on this rarely-performed early music gem by Orlande de Lassus, sung in a perfectly suited acoustical space. Mark your calendars and join us for Chromatic Christmas with the Polyphonists on Fri Dec 29, 2023.
