A 17th-century Roman serenata featuring instrumental works, operatic excerpts, games, readings and canzonettas, all imagined in the spirit of Queen Christina of Sweden’s Roman patronage. NWC is delighted to be presenting this artistic co-production by the Gallery Players of Niagara of St. Catharines and Hamilton’s Capella Intima, with the assistance of Metropolitan United Church. The last collaboration between these groups in February 2024 was a brilliant musical success, and this event promises to be just as grand!
