Monteverdi Vespers

In a large-scale performance, Exeter Philharmonic Choir and professional musicians bring the musical magic of Baroque Venice to Exeter. 

Exeter Philharmonic Choir is delighted to be joined in this musical adventure by approximately 40 boys and girls aged under thirteen from the Devon County Junior Choir, six outstanding soloists who have performed this work many times around the world and the internationally renowned early music group, His Majestys Sagbutts & Cornetts. 

The 17th-century Italian musical prodigy Claudio Monteverdi wrote his Vespers (an ancient form of evening prayer) as a magnificent representation of early Baroque music.
