Trouvere

 

Trouvere are highly acomplished medieval musicians who regularly perform at castles, stately homes, hotels etc providing medieval music fro wedding, banquets and such like.

They play a wide range of medieval instruments between them such as: harp, recorders, bagpipes, gittern, hurdy gurdy, percussion etc.
They offer songs, music, dance and storytelling as required.
They also work in schools, introducing pupils to the magic of the medieval sound.
All their music and costumes are researched from the period and are based on historical sources.  They do allow some personal interpretation of the music and this adds to the atmosphere.
They can appear as a duo, trio or quartet, but if more musicians are required, this would not be a problem for them.

In addition to the music, they can conclude trhe evening with dancing, providing there is a minimum of three performers booked so that two can play while the third leads the dancing.

As an extra, they can include storytelling in their repertoire, while their favourite Reynard the Fox can also be performed wearing masks.
