ON DEMAND REBROADCAST OF CONCERT GIVEN ON NOV. 26, 2021 IN MONTRÉAL. Available until December 10, 2021.
This special event presents the work of visionary 17th century nun Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, the “Phoenix of Mexico.” Our work on this repertoire is an extension of our continued exploration of the music of historical female monasteries, including those of New France.
The concert is preceded by a 45-minute conference on this important literary and historical figure and her music by musicologist John Lazos. For the performance, our nine singers are joined by guest musicians Esteban la Rotta (vihuela and baroque guitar), Marie-Laurence Primeau (viola de gamba, flutes), Nick Capozzoli (organ), and Miguel Medina (percussion).
