The Balourdet Quartet is acclaimed for their vibrant energy and masterful blend of technical precision and emotional depth that brings a fresh perspective to both beloved classics and modern compositions.

Ayreheart presents Early Music alongside traditional folk and original music with lute, vocals, colascione (a kind of bass lute), violin, guitar and percussion.

Listening to amarcord reminds us that singing is the most natural form of music – produced by the body for the human soul.
