Chamber Music Concerts presents I Fagiolini vocal ensemble

In 1986 an Oxford University student group gave its first concert, with an eclectic a cappella mix of Monteverdi, Grieg, and Jazz. Forty years later, director Robert Hollingsworth and I Fagiolini continue to rethink what a vocal group can do. In an age of AI, I Fagiolini is a hand-painted original. This is their anniversary program featuring “the best vocal ensemble music we know,” from Monteverdi to ravishing 20th-century works.
