Medieval Masters

Modern meets medieval as we explore the life and times of Peter of Bologna, Bishop of Corbavia in the 1300s. Martin Bussey's dramatic work for Baritone and ensemble, premiered in 2021, depicts the adventures, political ambitions and spirituality of this fascinating figure.

Step back in time with members of the Festival Voices as they perform evocative medieval works by Hildegard von Bingen and Guillame de Machaut.
