Stevie Wishart - Istampite: Medieval Pieces for Fiddle & Percussion (2017)

After pionieering one of thost ground-breaking ensembles of Medieval music performance in the 90’s, Sinfonye, Stevie Wishart has in the meantime moved on to more experimental/electronic projects, which keeps her very present of stages all over the world, with deep hooks in Sydney, Brussels and London. Her interests have always been related to combining Medieval and contemporary aesthetics, which can also be appreciated in this Istampite recording, where she teams up with two percussionists, Jim Denley and Pedro Estevan, to support her deeply informed fiddle and hurdy-gurdy renderings of 14th-century Florentine repertoire.
