Voices of Connection: 08/17 Monteverdi Beatus Vir

This fantastic piece from our January 2020 Baroque concert was also a part of our Baroque Favorites livestream in April of this year. Over a mostly continuous ground bass, Monteverdi weaves a never-ending banquet of melodic inventiveness, some passages simple and lovely, others extremely virtuosic. We are so lucky to have had an absolutely perfect group of vocal and instrumental soloists. A true delight to listen to!
