U.K. ensemble The Tallis Scholars have celebrated the rich legacy of Renaissanc­e vocal music for more than 40 years, performing in both sacred and secular venues across the globe. Their exclusive sound has been praised by reviewers for its supple clarity and tone, and they bring fresh interpreta­tions to music by contempora­ry as well as past composers. Performing in Chattanoog­a for the first time, their program is entitled Metamorpho­sis — highlighti­ng four iconic texts of the Christian tradition — Magnificat, Lord’s Prayer, Ave Maria, and Nunc Dimittis. The texts will be presented in contrastin­g settings by Renaissanc­e and Contempora­ry composers including Praetorius, Sheppard, Tavener, Stravinsky, Eccard, Gallus, Torrentes, Holst, Mouton, and Pärt. Tickets available online or at the door: $50, General; $25, Students.
