Description
Held at the Oratory inside the historic St John’s Co-Cathedral, Valletta Resounds strings together Caravaggio masterpieces with theatrical storytelling & timeless classical music.
Performed in English and held at the Oratory inside the Cathedral, Valletta Resounds elegantly strings together Caravaggio masterpieces with theatrical storytelling and timeless classical music. Critically acclaimed Maltese musicians under the musical direction of Jacob Portelli are at the helm of the site-specific performance, bringing to life the works of Baroque Masters such as Handel and Bach along with the sound of sacred Maltese music by composer Francesco Azzopardi and more.
Sung to perfection by some of Malta’s most esteemed sopranos, Dorothy Bezzina, Hannah Tong, and Dorothy Baldacchino, the music is beautifully brought to life on Baroque Harp, Baroque Violin, Baroque Cello, and on the Psaltery. This auditory delight is woven harmoniously with tales of the Oratory narrated by the ever-charming and regal character of Fra Bartolomeo, performed by Jeremy Grech. The concert starts at 18:30 with access to the Cathedral at 18:00 and can be accessed from the main door on St John Street.
