Praetorius Christmas Vespers
$20-$39
David Fallis, music director of the Toronto Consort, has created a Christmastime celebration by compiling the greatest music of the German Baroque master Michael Praetorius. The result is a Christmas Vespers service as it might have been heard in a North German Lutheran church in the 17th century. A massive ensemble of twelve vocal soloists, strings, winds, brass, lutes, organ, and full choir combine to fill St. James Cathedral with sounds of the holiday season.
Admission: $39 ($20 students/$25 discount side-section seating)
About Sine Nomine: Renaissance Choir

Cannon and singer/manager Pamela Silimperi, Sine Nomine is a mixed-voice chamber choir specializing in the fine performance of early music, including sacred and secular works from all regions. The ensemble’s repertoire ranges from the late Medieval to the Baroque, with special emphasis on Renaissance works of the 15th and 16th centuries.
