Mediaeval Baebes *

This gig is for a seated audience.

The classical chart-topping choir will be weaving its story-telling magic once again this Christmas. Traditionally a time for reflection and celebration, the tickets for this remarkable evening of music, dance and theatre.

Accompanied by a dazzling array of exotic and period instruments; carols, traditional folksongs, and innovative settings of ancient and romantic poetry will be revealed in a spirited performance of beguiling choral music. The Baebes will be premiering new arrangements from a brand new Christmas album due to be released this year.

When a group of friends broke into a graveyard over 25 years ago to sing mediæval songs and make merry; no one could have predicted the epic journey they were embarking on. Over a quarter of a century later, the Mediaeval Baebes have released 10 studio albums and won an Ivor Novella Award for their performance on the BBC serialization ‘The Virgin Queen.’ They have also received 2 Emmy nominations, and a Royal Television Society award alongside composer Martin Phipps, for their soundtrack to ITV’s hit period drama, ‘Victoria.’

Established as one of the most successful female-led, early music and folk ensembles in Europe; lush, ethereal harmonies will transport the listener through a myriad of ancient and forgotten languages.

Come join the Mediaeval Baebes, as they beguile and uplift their audiences once again with a glorious Christmas time celebration.

All tickets £25.
Doors open 7.30pm, starts 8pm.
