Monteverdi Vespers

Under the baton of Tom Neal, experience the splendour and drama of Claudio Monteverdi’s Vespers of the Blessed Virgin(1610) in a thrilling live performance featuring some of Europe’s finest period instrumentalists and singers. This monumental masterpiece combines glorious choral music, virtuosic solo singing, and dazzling instrumental colours in one of the most extraordinary works of the early Baroque. Performed on historic instruments by internationally acclaimed specialists, this promises to be an unforgettable evening of musical brilliance, spiritual intensity, and breathtaking artistry.

We are thrilled to be working with the extraordinary artists from the Monteverdi String Band, His Majestys Sagbutts and Cornetts and Ensemble Pro Victoria to bring an authentic rendition in the glorious surroundings of ancient Dorchester abbey.
