Exaudi nos is a mixed group, vocal and instrumental, dedicated to the research and the cultivation of the sacred music's cultural heritage.
Its programs are based on the music of Christian roots, and reach the whole cultural space of the West. In accordance with that, their members can approach current and old repertoires with instruments and styles appropriate to each time. |
