About The Event
Members: Anna Maria Friman, Linn Andrea Fuglseth, Jorunn Lovise Husan
Join us in the Cleveland Museum of Art’s Gartner Auditorium to hear the crystalline voices of Grammy-nominated Trio Mediæval, an ensemble that has captivated audiences since the group was founded in Oslo, Norway, in 1997. The trio juxtaposes sacred polyphony with folk music and improvisation, melding these elements into a style that is uniquely its own. Trio Mediæval’s fruitful relationship with the legendary ECM Records, collaborative spirit, and busy touring schedule has earned worldwide renown, and the group frequently appears on the most prestigious stages in the world, including London’s Wigmore Hall, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Vienna Konzerthaus, New York’s Carnegie Hall, and the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.
For this special engagement, Trio Mediæval will perform its program entitled Wolcome Yole, which features traditional Scandinavian Christmas songs and hymns, medieval English carols, and contemporary works written for the group.
More info about Trio Mediæval can be found on the ensemble’s website.
