Born into a noble Roman family around 1550, Emilio de' Cavalieri played an integral part in Italian artistic life. His Lamentations of Jeremiah, written towards the end of his career, is one of the most unique sacred works of the late 16th century. The enthralling Le Poème Harmonique perform this masterpiece of dramatic force in the glow of candlelight at the Church of St. Mary the Virgin.
