Overview
Women so often reinforce the message of compassion and love at the heart of the New Testament gospels and the Old Testament’s wisdom books. The Sixteen and Harry Christophers, in the ideal surroundings of St James’s, Spanish Place, recall their veneration in Palestrina’s sublime a cappella polyphony.
