On Maundy Thursday, here is the end of Thomas Tallis’ Lamentations of Jeremiah, sung @fontevraud.
It was amazing to sing this English music in the Loire Valley, next to the graves of Henry II, Eleanor of Aquitaine, and Richard the Lionheart.

Don't miss our very special production of @dovecomposer's 'The Little Green Swallow', our Spring 2021 opera that moved from a live, in person experience to a remote & recorded one.
