Singers moved through the vaulted spaces of churches in Brunswick and Portland to surround the audience in an interactive musical experience.
Oratorio Chorale performed Monteverdi’s Vespers of 1610 with 70 Chorale singers in multiple voice parts and a 13-member ensemble orchestra playing period instruments.
