The Gesualdo Six
Passion & Polyphony
The Gesualdo Six present an exhibition of some of the finest vocal consort works from Renaissance and modern-day composers. Taking inspiration from the darkness and shadows of Holy Week’s Tenebrae services, the programme explores atmospheric liturgical music through different lenses.
