Schola Musicorum presents Abend-Musique XXXIV

-

Location: Reyes Organ and Choral Hall, DeBartolo Performing Arts Center

Presented by the Department of Music

A concert of Gregorian chant from medieval manuscripts, featuring Mass Propers for the third Sunday after Easter from the twelfth-century graduale Graz 807. The Schola Musicorum was formed in 1993 by members of the Department of Music to study and perform Gregorian chant directly from medieval manuscripts and early printed sources. Seventeenth-century German composer Dietrich Buxtehude used the term Abend-Musique to refer to his late-afternoon Sunday concerts in the Marienkirche in Lübeck. (The German-French name means literally “Evening Music.”) The Schola Musicorum is directed by Alexander Blachly.

Program length: 30 minutes with no intermission.

Tickets: $3, $3 faculty/staff, $3 seniors, and $3 all students
