Ave Maria – Marienmusik aus dem venezianischen Frühbarock

concert
Experience early baroque up close: the Grenzklang ensemble combines well-known masterpieces with rare discoveries - a concert between radiant splendor and intimate depth.
Proven specialists in early Baroque transform the monastery church of St. Urban into an impressive overall experience.

The Grenzklang ensemble - vocals, period instruments and continuo - brings magnificent polychoral music, intimate solos and colorful instrumental music by Venetian masters to life. The program ranges from well-known works by Claudio Monteverdi, including movements from the Vespro della Beata Vergine such as "Nigra sum" and "Ave maris stella", to rarely performed music by Giovanni Rovetta and Giovanni Felice Sances. Intimate solos and instrumental interludes deliberately set contrasts to the magnificent choral movements and open up alternating perspectives between splendor and inwardness.

The close connection between music, space and spirituality creates an intense listening experience that takes up the special acoustics of the monastery church and unfolds an atmosphere of devotion, sensuality and transcendence.
