Seraphic
Fire celebrates 500 years of Spain in Florida with music that
accompanied Ferdinand & Isabella’s explorers across the ocean. Days
before Easter Day, 1513, Ponce de Leon and his crew first set eyes upon
the coast of Florida. Although he never found the fabled Fountain of
Youth, Ponce de Leon established the New World’s first continental
colony at St. Augustine. Seraphic Fire sings the rapturous Misa El Ojo
of Aragonese composer Francisco Peñalosa and the genius text settings of
Salamanca’s Juan del Encina in a concert illustrating the compositional
magic woven by the Spanish masters. 7:30 p.m.
