The Tallis Scholars - Adelaide Town Hall

Internationally renowned vocal ensemble The Tallis Scholars returns to showcase their undeniable mastery of both Renaissance and contemporary sacred music. From the mystical chants of Hildegard von Bingen through to the ethereal harmonies of Arvo Pärt, the crystalline voices of the The Tallis Scholars are perfectly at home in the Adelaide Town Hall. Considered ‘one of the UK’s greatest cultural exports’ (BBC Radio 3), The Tallis Scholars profoundly moving performance begins in colonial Mexico with Juan Gutiérrez de Padilla’s vibrant, and rarely heard, Deus in adiutorium and concludes as the final strains of Josquin des Prez’ Præter rerum seriem fade away. Contrasted with the stark, meditative power of Pärt, this transcendent journey through the heights of sacred choral music explores the essence of human devotion and creative expression.
