In the evocative setting of St. Paul's Within the Walls Church, the audience is invited to experience a concert of great artistic and spiritual value. Fifteen years after their last Italian tour, the Juilliard415—the period-instrument ensemble of the celebrated Juilliard School of New York—returns to Rome.
At the heart of the program lies The Creation (Die Schöpfung) by Joseph Haydn, one of the most profound and moving works in the classical repertoire. In this masterpiece, the dramatic power of the text merges with a musical language rich in lyricism and expressive tension, creating a deeply moving sonic meditation.
The performance features the Juilliard415 orchestra and the Yale Schola Cantorum choir, conducted by Grete Pedersen, one of the most renowned conductors on the international choral scene. The continuous dialogue between solo voices, choir, and orchestra finds its natural and ideal setting within the sacred atmosphere of the church.

St. Paul’s within the Walls Church
ST. PAUL’S WITHIN THE WALLS CHURCH
The 19th-century church of St. Paul within the Walls is an Anglican church located in the city centre of Rome and it has always hosted classical music performers and singers because of its fine acoustics. Built in 1873, it was the first non-Catholic Roman church to be built inside the walls of Rome.
The Church’s atmosphere becomes utterly magic at night, when the moonlight pierces through the rose windows and the candles enlighten the nave in a religious silence. Abandon yourself to the beauty of our concerts in a suggestive atmosphere.
An incredible intimate experience in the heart of the eternal city, at the border between past and future.
