Info zu Indiscretion

Nach dem großartigen Debütalbum [Ex]tradition setzt das vom Geiger Alix Boivert 2015 gegründete Ensemble The Curious Bards seine Erkundung der Musik aus der schottischen und irischen Folk-Tradition fort. Fündig wurden die Musiker dabei wieder in Notenmaterial des 18. Jahrhunderts. Mit dieser neuen Sammlung von Liedern und Tänzen lässt sich noch mehr von diesem faszinierenden Repertoire entdecken, bei dem die Unterscheidung zwischen ernster und populärer Musik nicht wirklich relevant ist.

The Curious Bards:
Ilektra Platiopoulou, Mezzosopran
Quentin Viannais, Dudelsack
Pierre Gallon, Cembalo
Samuel Serandour, Bodhran

The Curious Bards
Since 2014, The Curious Bards has united five musicians, who love Gaelic and Celtic traditional music. These five musicians had an early music education and have studied in prestigious institutions in Lyon, Paris and Basel. Their musical paths have integrated traditional Irish and Scottish practise for many years.

The ensemble claims to offer an innovative and creative insight to this repertoire guided by extensive research. They are “bards” of modern times, eager to discover and expand their knowledge, and always exigent with their practise.

The Curious Bards were chosen, in 2015, as a Young Ensemble in Residency in la Cité de la Voix in Vézelay. They have also benefited, since 2016, from the project EEEmerging carried out by the Ambronay Festival, which supports young early music ensembles under the Creative Europe program. Since 2020, The Curious Bards receives the support of Caisse des Dépôts, main sponsor.

They recorded their first album, which has been released in October 2017 under the label Harmonia Mundi.
