Stile Antico is an ensemble of young British singers, now established as one of the most original and exciting new voices in its field. Their recordings on the Harmonia Mundi label have enjoyed great success, receiving the Diapason d’Or de l'année, the Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik, and twice attracting GRAMMY nominations. Their performances have repeatedly been praised for their vitality and commitment, expressive lucidity and imaginative response to text. Stile Antico’s repertoire ranges from the glorious legacy of the English Tudor composers to the works of the Flemish and Spanish schools and the music of the early Baroque. Presented by Folger Consort, Stile Antico performed works off their CD Song of Songs, winner of the 2009 Gramophone Award for Early Music. Sile Antico performed on April 2, 2011 at the Lutheran Church of the Reformation.
