Re-imagining the sounds of Medieval Cyprus

In the framework of the European music project Awakening Sleeping Instruments, a Medieval music concert titled Αwakening: Re-imagining the sounds of Medieval Cyprus will be held on June 4.

The concert will consist of poetry set to original compositions. “Particularly,” explain its creators, “we draw verse, form and inspiration from Rhymes of Love, a beautiful collection of Cypriot poetry in the prevailing style of Petrarchism. We set this material to original music in the styles widely used and popular at the time, both in Cyprus and in Italy. These compositions are the distillation of the research carried out by the artistic team of the programme and that was focused on the Medieval period of musical and literary Cypriot history.”
