SINGET! RESURGAM With Cantairi Chonamara
September 26 | 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
€20
German Baroque Motets Resurgam was founded in 2003 by Mark Duley and is one of Ireland’s most acclaimed vocal ensembles. Resurgam is the premier project-based professional choir in the country, and many of its singers have parallel careers as international soloists.
Resurgam’s programme of German motets of the 17th and 18th centuries ranges from the austere to the joyful. The title of the concert is taken from the two settings of the text Siriget dem Herrn which frame the programme: the first, an early 17th-century work by Heinrich Schutz, and the second JS Bach’s famous and exuberantly virtuosic setting in eight parts. Other works by Vierdanck, Rosenmuller, JC Bach_, Buxtehude and Palestrina will bring a captivating range of colour to the programme, with various combinations of voices and instruments. Resurgam will be joined by our local Clifden choir Cantairf Chonamarp, who will join in selected works with Resurgam.
