If you liked last year's Tallis concert, you will love this year's special surround-sound presentation of multiple choirs of voices and early trombones — again in the beautiful acoustics of Trinity Episcopal Church.  Jacob Handl, also known as Jacobus Gallus, was venerated by his North German followers for his crystalline writing style and vast range of expression.  Experience this joyful and ethereal music from its center, as it might have been heard in the 16th century - some of it brought to life for the first time in 400 years!
