This repertoire is the earliest polyphonic and orchestral music performed in the territory of the modern United States. The concert features Chorus Angelorum, a professional choir, and the California Mission Sinfonia, a Classical-era Mexican orchestra. Admission is free. Don’t miss this historic event!

Palestrina: Master of All

Praised and imitated by his contemporaries and revered throughout the centuries, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina crafted some of the greatest a capella music of all time. Jouyssance devotes an entire concert to this contrapuntal master, presenting not only his most beloved motets, but also the sumptuous Missa L'homme armé à 5.  Although he is long associated with the Catholic Church, Palestrina had a rarely seen secular side, which Jouyssance will explore with a selection of his madrigals.
