The Waverly Consort
The Christmas Story
Every holiday season, the Waverly Consort’s 13-member ensemble performs The Christmas Story on tour. This program—beloved since its premiere at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1980—includes vocal and instrumental hymns, processionals, antiphons, and Mass compositions from the tenth to the 15th century arranged as a narrative. Rooted in music manuscripts and illuminated miniatures of the Middle Ages, these selections evoke the liturgical calendar for Advent and Christmastide.
$45 ($22 student rate) at 1pm and 3pm on Saturday & Sunday December 12 & 13. For tickets, please visit www.metmuseum.org/cloisters.
