“Sacred Rhythms” traces a vibrant journey through sacred and spiritual choral music - from the ethereal serenity of Renaissance and classical works to the expressive harmonies of contemporary composers - culminating in the dramatic, tango-infused Misatango by Martín Palmeri. This programme highlights the versatility of the human voice and the emotional breadth of sacred music, both timeless and freshly reimagined. Featuring a 60-strong mixed voice choir, a string chamber ensemble, piano, classical soloists and the pulsating heart of the bandoneon, the concert promises a fusion of reverence and rhythm.
