The incomparable Benjamin Bagby, well-known for his virtuosic rendering of Beowulf, returns to the EMSI stage to lead the ensemble Sequentia in an astonishing 12th Century tale of one man's victory over despair (sung in medieval German verse with video titles projected in English).This ancient tale by Hartmann von Aue (d. ca. 1210), tells of how a man tossed about by fortune and unaware of his incestuous origins, finally finds his own life, returning from near death to become a great holy man.
Benjamin Bagby, Jasmina Črnčič and Lukas Papenfusscline: voices and Romanesque harps.
