The minimalism of Arvo Pärt and Philip Glass coalesces with Renaissance strains of John Dowland, Orlando Gibbons, and Gregorio Allegri, courtesy of the Grammy-winning Attacca Quartet. Death of Classical’s séances in the catacombs of Brooklyn’s Green-Wood Cemetery are marketed under the series title “The Angel’s Share.” That divine term of art, should you be wondering, refers to the volume lost to evaporation (up to one percent a year) when cognac, whiskey, and the like are aged in porous oak barrels. Pre-concert spirits tastings add to the heavenly ambiance. —Matthew Gurewitsch
