Current affairs and crises inevitably find expression and reflection in the arts. In premodern Europe, epidemics and wars were common, and the Black Death or bubonic plague was perhaps the most feared of all, being responsible for some 100 million deaths between 1375 and 1475.
In our time of a global pandemic, it is fascinating to see how previous generations responded to pandemics in their own time. That has inspired this concert – music relating to the plague, to mortality, and to healing.
In this performance, Cappella Martialis – Singapore’s leading Early Music Choir – returns to Melaka after a 3 year absence to present hymns, motets, and pieces that were sung in times of great peril and public need. The choir will perform a cappella with original pronunciations of the Latin and English texts. For all classical music enthusiasts and historians, this performance is not to be missed!
