Spirit and Splendor: Schütz & Handel
Heinrich Schütz’s Musikalische Exequien—the first German requiem—is rich in its choral textures and variation. The splendor of Handel’s famously challenging Dixit Dominus showcases the virtuosity of the Musica Sacra Chorus with a marvelous cast of soloists. These and other Baroque era gems have been signature works throughout Musica Sacra’s 60 years of music making!
