Los Angeles Master Chorale's
Lagrime Di San Pietro/Tears Of St. Peter
LOS ANGELES MASTER CHORALE’S
LAGRIME DI SAN PIETRO/TEARS OF ST. PETER
By Orlando di Lasso
Conducted by Jenny Wong
Directed by Peter Sellars
October 20-21, 2018 - Bram Goldsmith Theater
From the creative mind of acclaimed director Peter Sellars comes his very first a capella staging and most personal and emotionally-charged work to date. Twenty-one singers transform this 75-minute Renaissance masterpiece – committed to memory and dramatically staged – into both a biblical parable of St. Peter’s disavowal of Jesus Christ and a contemporary allegory for our fractious times.
“A major accomplishment for the Master Chorale… and a major accomplishment for music history.” - Los Angeles Times
