This spring, Aurora Chamber Singers presents two monumental works of sacred choral music—Palestrina’s Missa Brevis and Handel’s Dixit Dominus. Written more than a century apart, these pieces offer contrasting visions of devotion and musical expression: one rooted in the serene clarity of Renaissance polyphony, the other charged with Baroque theatrical intensity. Together, they illuminate how sacred texts continue to inspire composers across eras and traditions.
