Sacred Italy from Vivaldi to Puccini

Italy’s sun-kissed warmth is reflected in the vocal beauty of its music, celebrated for its natural lyricism and elegance. This Chœur Métropolitain concert highlights a tradition where the voice plays a central, deeply human role.

Puccini’s Messa di Gloria, reveals the melodic richness and expressive power that would go on to define his fame. The program also features two pillars of Italy’s choral heritage: Monteverdi and Vivaldi, Venetian composers whose sacred music continues to shine across the centuries.
