Folger Consort performed Music of the Spheres in the Gallery and the Elizabethan Theatre on June 3rd and June 4th, 1979. The term "music of the spheres" (or musica mundana) refers to the celestial harmonies of the heavenly bodies in their movements across the sky. Music written for the choir is the closest Renaissance style to the exalted concept of music of the spheres.
