Idrisi Ensemble

Cathedral Quarter

Following their sell-out London success, the Idrîsî Ensemble brings a mesmerising concert to the Festival, featuring rare music from Corsica, Greece, and Mallorca. Featuring several never-recorded chants and a newly reconstructed Ancient Greek sibylline oracle. Pioneering a fresh approach to historical performance, Idrîsî Ensemble performs medieval repertoire from period manuscripts, together with UNESCO-protected and endangered traditions.

With world-leading traditional performers and early music specialists, this very special concert is a celebration of human imagination and a powerful encounter with sounds on the brink of extinction.
