Medieval Music in the Dales

The 2026 Festival goes to the margins of medieval music-making… different cultures, different influences, different identities. We are performing twice and give a workshop on irregular meters in Cypriot traditional music. Check out the program of the festival:

Anabiosis: Medieval and Traditional Music of Cyprus

Situated between the Eastern Mediterranean and the Western world, Cyprus has been shaped over centuries by diverse musical and cultural influences, converging ancient rituals, with Byzantine and medieval traditions. These elements coexist as traces within the island’s soundscape, forming a continuum in which older practices are preserved, transformed, and recontextualized across time. Anabiosis (“revival” in Cypriot Greek) reflects this enduring continuity and highlights the island’s rich and beautiful musical heritage.

Echoes of Holland

In collaboration with the Muze van Zuid Festival, we developed the program “Echoes of Holland”, which focuses on new, medieval and Renaissance music from the Netherlands, inspired by the writings of the 13th-century Dutch mystic Hadewijch van Brabant. The program will present works by Hadewijch, Christian Hollander and Carolus Souliert, alongside Dutch medieval and traditional songs. To bridge past and present, the ensemble will incorporate contemporary works by Dutch and Netherlands-based composers, including: Louis Andriessen, Yannis Kyriakides and Amarante Nat.

Φύση, Λατρεία και Θείο (Nature, Worship and the Divine)

As part of the Festival of Sacred Music, the European medieval music ensemble Sibil•la Ensemble collaborates with distinguished composers and musicians from Greece and Cyprus. With a strong emphasis on the Divine, human passion, and the need for transcendence, a musical ritual emerges—uniting medieval and contemporary music on historical instruments. The performance draws inspiration from the relationship between Nature and the Divine, as reflected in medieval musical traditions of both the West and the East.

Works by Yannis Kyriakides, Angelos Mastrantonis, and Yiannis Panayiotou have been commissioned by the ensemble in collaboration with the Greek National Opera, while Aspasia Nasopoulou’s work has been specially adapted for the group.

La Maquina ft. Sibil•la Ensemble
