Биография

Hailed as a “fascinating journey with music of timeless beauty”, the Trio Mediæval’s highly acclaimed first album “Words of the Angel” launched the group into the elite circles of early music ensembles. Formed in 1997, the Grammy nominated vocal ensemble consists of founder members Linn Andrea Fuglseth and Anna Maria Friman, and Jorunn Lovise Husan who joined the group in 2018. A typical trio programme amalgamates their many varied strands of musical exploration: medieval sacred music, nordic folk music and specially commissioned works, including premieres by Anders Jormin, Mats Eilertsen, Gavin Bryars, Ivan Moody, Sungji Hong, Andrew Smith, Tõnu Kõrvits, Julia Wolfe, Michael Gordon and David Lang. The trio has collaborated with musicians and orchestras such as Arve Henriksen, Trygve Seim, Birger Mistereggen, Vox Clamantis, Sinikka Langeland Ensemble, Mats Eilertsen Trio, Bang on a Can All-Stars, Norwegian Chamber Orchestra, Norwegian Radio Orchestra and the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra. Trio Mediæval has toured extensively in Europe and USA, and has visited Japan, Hong Kong, Macau, South Korea and Australia. The singers have appeared on the most prestigious stages in the world, including Wigmore Hall, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Vienna Konzerthaus and the Carnegie Hall. Trio Mediæval has recorded eight albums for ECM Records. An Old Hall Ladymass is their second release, following Solacium, with the Norwegian label 2L. Produced by Morten Lindberg and John Potter.
