Tonight, the Geneva-based early music ensemble Gli Angeli Genève, founded in 2005 by Stephen MacLeod, brings us a program of Thomas Tallis’s sacred anthems and motets with selections from his setting of the Lamentatons of Jeremiah. Tonight’s program was recorded live in concert October 19, 2023, in Geneva, Switzerland’s Church of St. Gervais. Thanks to WFMT’s association with the European Broadcasting Union, we’re able to bring you tonight’s program as a stream for thirty days following the broadcast.
