A Look at Music and History
The Music Scene: Crescendo
In its eight years here, Crescendo has been many things for many people: a creative outlet for devoted amateur singers, a magnet for professional talent, particularly in early music; a globe-spanning, multicultural gold mine (Latin American flavors are a particular specialty) and even an imaginative time machine.
Next weekend, that magical, world-traveling time machine will take us back to the European Renaissance, with a concert of sacred music centering on the mass “Mille Regretz” by the 16th-century Spanish composer Cristóbal de Morales.
