At the beginning of June I’ll be singing in Philharmonia Baroque Chorale’s contribution to the performance of Alessandro Striggio’s Missa sopra Ecco sì beato giorno.
There are sixty individual voice parts in the final movement, and forty for the rest of the movements. The group is organized into five choirs of eight (five choirs of twelve for the final movement).
Read more information on this work at Wikipedia.
The performances are at the Berkeley Early Music Festival.
Saturday, June 7th, 8pm

Jen,
Nice to see your blog! Wish I could have heard the Striggio–saw the review on SFCV.
All best,
Richard
