Join Platinum Consort and their newly formed period instrument ensemble, Platinum 415, in the intimate grandeur of St James's – in the heart of Piccadilly – for an evening of exquisite polyphony, culminating in the monumental 1605 Requiem in six parts by Tomás Luis de Victoria. Before that, you will experience the stirring chant of Hildegard von Bingen, and bathe in the evocative harmonies of Alonso Lobo, Francisco Guerrero, Orlande de Lassus, and Claudio Monteverdi.

Victoria Requiem 1605 Officium Defunctorum

“The Renaissance polyphony is exceptionally well done. Careful attention to phrasing keeps the music tight and clean, and allows it to open out and breathe while at the same time giving just the right impression that the singers themselves don’t need to breathe much. This is singing that brings great pleasure.”
