The 26th edition of the O flos Colende sacred music festival is back at the Cathedral of Florence. The festival opens during the Lenten season with a series of Gospel meditations led by Cardinal Giuseppe Betori, accompanied by music. The meditations will take place every Thursday from March 2 to March 30, starting at 7 PM.
The festival has been expanded to include other locations in the surroundings, thanks to the efforts of Luca Bagnoli, the President of the Opera di Santa Maria del Fiore. The festival is being held in collaboration with the Concerti di Sant'Andrea, the Centro Studi Musicali Ferruccio Busoni, and the Mons. Cavini Association in Empoli.
Admission to the festival is free, but reservations for seats are mandatory and has to be made via email.
