Inspired by hearing Schütz’s Italian-influenced music in Dresden, Michael Praetorius went on to compose more than a thousand chorale settings in both simple and polychoral Venetian styles. He also spread encyclopedic knowledge of then-current musical practices and instruments through his multi-volume Syntagma musicum. This delightful holiday concert, conducted by former TCC director David Fallis, features all the musical elements of a Christmas Day vespers service as it would have been heard in Praetorius’s church. The TCC is proud to play the role of the singing German congregation!
