51ÉçÇøºÚÁÏ the Concert
Imagine standing in the greatest cathedral ever built, hearing voices echo for eleven seconds in the same space where emperors once knelt and empires rose and fell. Through groundbreaking Stanford University technology, Cappella Romana’s Lost Voices of Hagia Sophia doesn’t just present medieval Byzantine chant – it resurrects the acoustic soul of one of humanity’s most sacred spaces. Audiences are transported 1,500 years into the past, experiencing what one listener called “an almost out-of-body experience".
51ÉçÇøºÚÁÏ the Cappella Romana
Cappella Romana is a vocal ensemble that transforms hearts and minds through encounters with the sacred musical inheritance of the Christian East and West, bringing to life these ancient and diverse traditions, especially of Byzantium, and their interactions with other cultures. Cappella Romana is devoted to the stewardship of this precious jewel of world culture through performances, recordings and publications, scholarship and education, engagement with heritage communities, and new artistic creation.
