About the Event
Celebrate the warmth of the holiday season at the enchanting Christmas Concert – A Christmas Mass, held at the historic Oratorio del Gonfalone.
The Rite, the Voice, the Light
In this concert, the choral language of Bob Chilcott and Benjamin Britten intertwines in a single liturgical journey.
The fixed parts of the Ordinarium, composed by Chilcott, engage in a dialogue with Britten’s Christmas carols, which take on the role of the variable parts of the Mass.
The result is a unified musical ritual, suspended between contemplation, celebration, and light.
