Music from Italian convents – a staged concert evening

On 1 November 2025, the SONUS FEMINÆ concert series will present the concert BEYOND THE VEIL II in St. Elisabeth's Church. This special event offers insights into the high musical culture of 17th-century Italian convents, with works by female composers such as Chiara Margarita Cozzolani, Sulpitia Cesis and Raphaella Aleotti.
