Pomerium—Musica Vaticana
European Roots and International Flowerings
March 28, 2008 (Friday) 8:00 p.m.
Pre-concert lecture, 7:30p.m.
St. Turibius Chapel, Pontifical College Josephinum
“Musica Vaticana” features music written
between 1503 and 1543 for the Sistine Chapel choir
at the very time when Michelangelo was painting
the Sistine Chapel ceiling and altar wall. This
spectacular music was written for a choir the size
of Pomerium. Pomerium was founded by Alexander Blachly
in New York in 1972 to perform music composed for
the famous chapel choirs of the Renaissance. The
name—medieval Latin for “garden”
or “orchard” —derives from the
title of a treatise by the 14th-century music theorist
Marchettus of Padua, who explained that his book
contains the “flowers and fruits” of
the art of music.
”The standard by which early music vocal
groups are measured.” ---The New York Times
