Trio Mediæval with Catalina Vicens, organetto
Love abounds in everything: Music of Hildegard von Bingen and Leonel Power
The crystalline voices of Trio Mediæval have captivated audiences since the group was founded in Oslo in 1997, earning them two GRAMMY nominations and renown across the globe for performances that are both pristine and intensely immersive. They make their long-awaited return to the BEMF concert stage alongside the stunning organetto virtuoso Catalina Vicens in a program of music by Hildegard von Bingen and Leonel Power. Traverse the ancient soundscapes of these two contrasting Medieval masters, from the soaring chants of the 12th-century abbess, Hildegard, to the influential early 15th-century English polyphony by Power.
“Perfectly combines celestial purity and perfection with human warmth and vulnerability.”
