Trio Mediæval by Tore Sætre, CC BY-SA 4.0
Trio Mediæval, the Bananarama of high quality mediaeval singing, bowled us over with this concert in late 2009. Three Scandanavian sopranos who sing beautifully and look like they are having fun doing so.
This is what we saw:
I have managed to find, on YouTube, a fragment of Trio Mediæval singing some of these fragments, albeit singing them somewhere other than the Wigmore Hall.
It should give you an idea of what we heard:
After the concert I bought their album, Words Of The Angels – we listen to it quite often it is so lovely.
Janie and I were not yet daunted by the dread of going up west that close to Christmas (to be fair, Sunday evening is probably as tolerable as it gets), so we booked this concert for mid December and I’m so glad we did.
A very memorable and enjoyable evening; we also enjoyed a Monday off work the next day.
