Cork’s beloved chamber choir Madrigal ‘75 come together with the Cork Baroque Players to bring a programme of music inspired by the Baroque cloisters, in the ideal setting of Nano Nagle Place. A concert that will transport you to the seventeenth century where a contingent of talented nun-composers followed their musical dreams inside cloistered walls, eschewing respectable marriage and outside life to create musical wonders, and fighting for their rights to do so.Madrigal ‘75 and Cork Baroque Players will treat you to works from Isabella Leonarda, Claudia Francesca Rusca, and other gems of the period, with rarely-heard and beautiful settings of classic sacred and secular music.
