The San Francisco Girls Chorus, led by Conductor Valérie Sainte-Agathe, presents its Premier Ensemble in a semi-staged performance of Vivaldi’s Juditha Triumphans at Z Space. The only oratorio by Vivaldi to have survived, Juditha Triumphans is based on the Apocryphal Book of Judith. This remarkable oratorio from 1716 was written for an all-female ensemble, with all characters both male and female interpreted by women of the Ospedale della Pietà, a girl’s orphanage in Venice where Vivaldi was music director.
