About this concert
The jester says what no one else dares to say. Between mockery and seriousness, between mask and man, armed with permission to shoot at anything that moves, the jester navigates the boundaries of what is allowable. Sollazzo Ensemble portrays this ambiguous figure with madrigals, ballads, and songs from the 14th century. Playful, sharp, sometimes vicious: here sounds a voice that entertains, disrupts, jokes, and hurts, and which, despite its innocence, is life-threatening.

About the performers
Founded in 2014, the Basel-based Sollazzo Ensemble won several prizes in the York Early Music International Young Artists Competition less than a year later. The ensemble led by viola player Anna Danilevskaia focuses on medieval repertoire, although the musicians have different musical backgrounds - from early music to contemporary music and even musical.
