The Sollazzo Ensemble brings together artists with a passion for medieval and early Renaissance music, nevertheless, they also have experience with jazz, contemporary and folk music. All this is reflected in the ensemble’s unique interpretation which unites an endeavour to achieve the greatest expressivity and authenticity, supported by familiarity with period sources. “It is not just a question of technical brilliance, but just as much that sense of engagement with both the audience as well as each other,” wrote The York Press. In their Prague Spring debut the group will present the programme La dolce vista (The Sweet Sight) with its subtitle The music of Francesco Landini, the blind organist of Florence.
