Capella Regalis presents Capella Regalis Men & Boys Choir and the Choir of the Cathedral Church of All Saints in a special performance of the Musikalische Exequien (Funeral Music) by Heinrich Schütz, composed in 1635-1636.

It is one of many musical events taking place across Canada this fall as part of SchützFest350, a coast-to-coast Canadian festival of music composed by influential Baroque composer Heinrich Schütz (1585—1672).
