The Venetian antiphonal style of Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli was the inspiration behind several German masters, including Heinrich Schütz, Samuel Scheidt, and Michael Praetorius. The Consort Chorus collaborates with our friends, the Washington Cornett and Sackbutt Ensemble, led by Michael Holmes, in a program offering a unique and festive exploration of a wide variety of seasonal music for choirs of voices and instruments.
