About this concert
A pilgrimage to the Holy Land, shipwreck on the Black Sea: the life of Oswald von Wolkenstein resembles an adventure novel. But the most legendary thing about the South Tyrolean was his ‘man de fyèr’: his magical hand that could make any instrument sound. Ensemble Leones has chosen music by Wolkenstein and contemporaries for a glimpse into the life of one of the last Minnesingers.

About the performers
Ensemble Leones, founded in 2008, focuses its attention exclusively on medieval music. Research enables the ensemble to present subtle reconstructions and stylistically accurate arrangements of repertoire that has been hidden for ages – for example, songs by the German Minnesinger Neidhart von Reuental and the poet and composer Oswald von Wolkenstein. Leones regularly collaborates with soloists such as Andreas Scholl and Benjamin Bagby. The musicians also perform with many other ensembles, including Ensemble Gilles Binchois, the Ferrara Ensemble and The Earle His Viols.
