Trio Mediæval live in London

Experience Trio Mediæval live on October 30th

Trio Mediæval will perform at St John’s Smith Square, London on October 30th, 2026. The ensemble is renowned for its interpretations of medieval music, primarily focusing on vocal performance of songs and instrumental pieces from the 11th to 14th centuries. Their repertoire frequently draws from sources like the Llibre Vermell de Montserrat and the work of composers such as Guillaume de Machaut and Pérotin. A distinctive feature of their sound is the blending of voices – typically soprano, alto, and tenor – often accompanied by instruments such as the Hardanger fiddle, medieval harp, and bagpipes. They are known for both historically informed performance practice and a sensitive, nuanced approach to musical expression.

St John’s Smith Square holds significant historical and architectural importance. Originally built in 1728 as a parish church designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor, it ceased being a conventional church in 1921. It was subsequently repurposed as a concert hall and has since become celebrated for its exceptional acoustics. The hall is noted for its Baroque architecture and continues to host a diverse range of musical performances including classical recitals, chamber music concerts, and choral events.
