After the enormous musical and artistic quality demonstrated in the last edition of Cistermúsica Sacra, the ensemble of participants from the Advanced Workshop returns to Cistermúsica - Alcobaça Music Festival to reinterpret a programme of works from different eras and regions. Directed by Jonathan Ayerst, this concert is the result of the training programme for music students and professional choir members, held last March, entitled Jesu meine Freude and Penitential Motets. This performance, which includes works by Thomas Tallis, Manuel Cardoso, J.S. Bach and Anton Bruckner, will be the embodiment of a deeply spiritual moment.
