"Simply sublime" - Stile Antico at the Al Bustan Festival, Lebanon
4.3.09
Stile Antico's debut performance in Lebanon was exceptionally well received. Their concert, at the tiny church of St Norah at Smar Jbeil, was part of the annual Al Bustan Festival. This extract is taken from the review in 'L'orient le jour' (3/3/09): "Stile Antico's sacred vocal music is intense, dramatic, fervent: simply sublime. It translates the passion of these young singers... Without a conductor, this group, which loves to work together, offered to a audience lightly chilled by the cold, music which warmed the heart".
