Events Description

 

Benjamin Bagby, known for his performance of Beowulf, returns to Vancouver with the astonishing medieval verse epic Gregorius, “The Holy Sinner”. A narrative poem of sin and redemption, Gregorius retells the legend of St. Gregory the Great.

Bagby is joined by his medieval music ensemble Sequentia, known for their innovative, intimate, and enchanting performances of ancient texts ranging from Hildegard von Bingen to the Icelandic Edda. Sequentia’s virtuosic performances are compelling, surprising in their immediacy, and strike the listener with a timeless emotional connection to our own past musical cultures.

“Sequentia delivers the full compass of human expression, from contemplative quietude to virile chest-thumping, all served up with a startling intensity.” (Boston Globe)
