Early Music Now presents: Heinavanker, "Terra Mariana"

The season opens on October 20th at St. Joseph Chapel (1501 S. Layton Blvd.) – an ideal acoustic venue for a choral concert. The six-voiced Estonian ensemble Heinavanker returns to Milwaukee to perform “Terra Mariana,” a fascinating program which includes early Estonian folk songs, chant, as well as Renaissance polyphony.

A unique combination of liturgical chant and Renaissance polyphony, Heinavanker’s repertoire also includes arrangements of early Estonian folk hymns and runic songs. This six-member group offers a program dedicated to the Christianization of Medieval Estonia, the Virgin Mary, and ancient Maarjamaa (St. Mary’s Land).

Tickets may be ordered by phone (414.225.3113), email (info@earlymusicnow.org), or regular mail (759 N. Milwaukee #420, Milwaukee 53202). A season brochure is available upon request.
