BERLINER CAPPELLA
A cappella pieces from the Renaissance, a period of scientific and cultural awakening, meet contemporary sacred and secular works.
And it is always about new beginnings: the creation of the world (John Rutter), David's pain of parting after the death of his son Absalom (Thomas Weelkes) or new life in a foreign land (Apollonio Maiello). Matthew Martins even says: ‘Behold, I make all things new.’
- Apollonio Maiello: Io non ho paese – Uraufführung
- Matthew Martin: A Song of the New Jerusalem
- Bob Chilcott: I Share Creation
- John Rutter: Hymn to the Creator of Light
- Thomas Weelkes: When David Heard
- Nicolas Gombert: Lugebat David Absolon
- Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina: Nunc dimittis
