An Italian Christmas

Vivaldi's much loved Gloria, performed by young treble voices, as once was the case in Venice’s Ospedale Delle Pietà. Festive Christmas motets from the heydays of Renaissance Venice and Rome open the concert.

Presented by Luminescence Chamber Singers, Canberra International Music Festival, and Wesley Music Centre as part of A Luminous Christmas 2022.
