Renaissance choral favorites from a globe-trotting ensemble

Devotees of historically informed vocal music will certainly know this blockbuster British ensemble. With regular sold-out appearances at many of the world’s most prestigious venues and festivals on four continents, Stile Antico has definitively secured its place in the upper echelons of European choral music. With their program on the Dumbarton stage, this twelve-voice ensemble, famously without a conductor, marks its twentieth anniversary season by selecting one piece from each of its sixteen award-winning albums to create a thrilling journey through some of the greatest music of the Renaissance. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear the crystal-clear acoustics of the Dumbarton Church sanctuary ring with ravishing choral polyphony.
