Living Fires of Passion: Songs of Ecstasy and Song of Songs

Beautiful Renaissance Choral Music sung by Liverpool Renaissance Singers and directed by Liam Owens. Song of Songs one of the most enigmatic and sensual books of the Bible burns with the language of love - earthly, spiritual and eternal. Its poetry long embraced by composers speaks of longing and union, of beauty glimpsed and pursued, of passion that transcends the merely human. OUr programme explores this fercent landscape through the sacred choral settings of Renaissance Masters including Victoria, Guerrero and Palestrina.
