The Gesualdo Six is an award-winning vocal sextet from London whose repertoire includes music from medieval and Renaissance times as well as contemporary works written specifically for them. On Nov. 12, they present a program inspired by compline, traditionally the prayer that signals the end of the day. It’s a contemplative program that spans 800 years, beginning with a 12th century work and including a recent piece by English composer Donna McKevitt, called “Lumen,” Latin for “light.” The sextet plays Nov. 12 at the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, or Smoky Mary’s as it’s sometimes known.
