WBC: Te Deum Sacred Grand Motets of Lully and Charpentier

  • National Presbyterian Church 4101 Nebraska Avenue Northwest Washington, DC, 20016 United States (map)

J.S. Bach drew from the best of a variety of established European musical styles and combined them in his own unique voice. This concert will highlight influential composers of the French Baroque, featuring sacred grand motets of Jean-Baptiste Lully (1632–1687) and MarcAntoine Charpentier (1643–1704). Charpentier’s magnificent Te Deum will head a list of exquisite works that reflect the magnificence of French courtly and ecclesiastical grandeur.
