This week does not have one particular concert that stands out as the most exciting, but there are events of every kind that merit your attention. The problem will be choosing what to attend.

CHORAL:
>> Visiting Washington this week are the Tallis Scholars (pictured), one of the world’s foremost early music choral ensembles. They will perform masterpieces from Spain and Portugal at the Clarice Smith Center on Sunday evening (March 2, 7:30 p.m.), culminating in Victoria’s six-voice Requiem Mass, one of the most gorgeous pieces ever composed. Tickets: $25 to $50.

>> Earlier on Sunday (March 2, 4 p.m.), Washington’s own Cathedral Choral Society will celebrate the centennial of Washington National Cathedral by performing the world premiere of a new work by Dominick Argento called Evensong: Of Love and Angels, with soprano Elizabeth Futral. Mozart’s Vesperae Solennes de Confessore will also be on the program. Tickets: $52.

INSTRUMENTAL:
>> Flutist James Galway will play a recital on Monday night (February 25, 8 p.m.), with his wife, Jeanne Galway, sponsored by Washington Performing Arts Society in the Kennedy Center Concert Hall. The program includes two masterful flute sonatas of the 20th century, by Poulenc and Prokofiev, as well as Chaminade’s Concertino, beloved of flutists everywhere. Tickets: $40 to $85.

>> The following evening (February 26, 7:30 p.m.), WPAS will host a recital by cellist Jian Wang at Sidney Harman Hall. The program consists of three of Bach’s unaccompanied suites for cello, music widely considered to be among the best written for the instrument. Tickets: $29.
