Celebrate Voice 2025 launches in spectacular fashion as internationally acclaimed ensemble I Fagiolini returns to Monteverdi’s iconic 1610 Vespers. Renowned for nearly four decades of boundary-pushing performance, recording, and film, the group brings fresh intensity to this masterpiece—performed as Monteverdi originally imagined it: a vivid dialogue of solo voices, each infused with drama and emotional depth.
Joined by the brilliant English Cornett & Sackbut Ensemble, I Fagiolini delivers a one-to-a-part performance that is both intimate and breathtakingly powerful. Expect dazzling virtuosity, daring improvisation, and a kaleidoscope of colours from wind, strings, and brass, all in service of Monteverdi’s revolutionary sound world.
This is not just a concert—it’s a visceral, 21st-century reimagining of one of choral music’s greatest works, as I Fagiolini celebrates its 40th anniversary.
