Transcendent Music at Saint Mary of the Angels Church

Radical Spirit

Transcendent Music at Saint Mary of the Angels Church Sunday 9 June

A special concert of exploratory and contemporary music inspired by radical traditions in music and spirituality, featuring a diverse programme from traditional (Gregorian chant, medieval polyphony, taonga puoro, throat singing) to contemporary (noise, drone, contemporary composition, improvisation and video art).

A wide ranging group of musicians will present their musical visions in the beautiful setting of Saint Mary of the Angels Church. The church has a long tradition of fine classical music, including gorgeous sung masses with Renaissance polyphony and Gregorian chant, but this is the first time that exploratory or experimental music has been presented in the church.

Be part of a one of a kind musical experience.
