The second San Diego debut of the season will be Ensemble La Morra, with a guest appearance by one of the great living lutenists, Nigel North. The ensemble will present a program of songs and instrumental music composed or circulating in Italy around the turn of fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, shining a light on the richly musical Italy of the time of Leonardo da Vinci.

La Morra

St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church

La Morra's recordings on the Ramée record label have become icons for lovers of late Medieval and Renaissance music. In this special one-night-only event, the Switzerland-based sensations bring us a program full of the gorgeous harmonies of the Italian Renaissance, including pieces by Francesco Canova da Milano, Don Michele Pesenti, and even a piece by Giovanni de’ Medici—or, as he was better known, Pope Leo X!
