| Introduction | Voces Caelestes is a vocal ensemble which brings together some of the finest Portuguese singers. Their first project, in 1997, was Rameau’s Platée, conducted by Harry Christophers. Since then, they have sung an extensive repertoire including Bach’s Christmas Oratorio under Peter Schreier, Scarlatti’s Dixit Dominus under Laurence Cummings, Mozart's Requiem under Leonardo García Alarcón, Destouches’s Le Carnaval et la Folie under Marcos Magalhães and Bach's Magnificat under Enrico Onofri. They have performed with instrumental ensembles such as Camerata Academica Salzburg, Lisbon Metropolitan Orchestra, Portuguese Chamber Orchestra and Os Músicos do Tejo. They have also presented numerous a cappella programmes under their artistic director Sérgio Fontão. |
