POSTPONED: Schola Cantorum

press release: This concert celebrates the music by Leonhard Lechner. A student of Lassus, Lechner’s works have fallen into oblivion until recently. His music wields the rigor of Renaissance counterpoint, and weaves it into a creative expression with surprisingly dramatic tension. The most dramatic piece featured in this program is his setting of St. John’s Passion, in a new scholarly edited by John Hughes (Ripon College).
