Join The Tallis Scholars for an evening of spiritual works spanning 40 years on Saturday, April 5 2014 at 8:00pm.

For 40 years, The Tallis Scholars have served as early music’s most visible advocates of Renaissance choral repertoire. This celebratory program of spiritual works spans four centuries, featuring some of the group’s favorite pieces from the past four decades of performing—works including Thomas Tallis’ masterpiece motet Suscipe quaeso and Allegri’s haunting Miserere. The repertoire will also include the world premiere of a new piece by composer Michael Nyman, commissioned by Miller Theatre in honor of this milestone anniversary.

Josquin: Praeter rerum seriem
de Rore: Missa Praeter rerum seriem
Allegri: Miserere
Tallis: Suscipe quaeso
Tye: Peccavimus cum patribus nostris

Presented by the Miller Theatre at Columbia University
