Les Arts Florissants—
Responsories for Maundy Thursday:
The Sacred Madrigals of Carlo Gesualdo

Suffering, remorse, and guilt are pervasive in Gesualdo's life and work. This complex man's music is so full of shocking dissonances that it has taken nearly 400 years to really comprehend his singular musical language. Les Arts Florissants, the unrivalled Renaissance and baroque period ensemble, will be making its Met Cloisters debut with this all-vocal program.

The Fuentidueña Chapel
Tickets start at $65
Bring the Kids for $1 (ages 6–16).

Sunday, October 20, 1 pm and 3:30 pm

MetLiveArts programming at The Met Cloisters is made possible by Art Mentor Foundation Lucerne.
