Aperi Animam, a professional vocal early music ensemble, will give a free concert at 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 16, in the Milwaukee VA Medical Center Chapel.
The group "has been praised for its ensemble precision, full-throated vocals, emotional expressivity and innovative programming," according to its website.
"Our hope and desire is to bring awareness of its mystical properties and benefit to the soul, which is where our name originates — 'open your soul.'"
The ensemble's repertoire spans from Gregorian chant to 21st century works but focuses primarily on sacred music from the Renaissance.
"The ensemble emphasizes the meditative and reflective atmosphere that can be manifested through thoughtful and mindful performance of this music."
