This will be a performance of Renaissance choral music – the Hapsburg Court Composers Heinrich Finck, Heinrich Isaac, and their students Thomas Stoltzer and Ludwig Senfl – led by choral director Richard Porterfield, which will include movements from favorite masses, Marian and celebratory motets and psalms, on Saturday October 26, 2024 at 5pm at the Shrine of St Francis Cabrini (near the Cloisters in Fort Tryon Park), 701 Fort Washington Ave, Manhattan. To reach the Shrine, take the A train to the 190th Street station, or the M4 bus. Suggested admission donation, $20. Students, free.

To add to this Saturday Experience, come early and walk through the adjacent Fort Tryon Park Gardens down to the famed Cloisters Museum- the Met Museum of medieval art, enjoying Fall Colors and unequaled Hudson River and Palisades Views! [the M4 bus goes directly there if needed]
