The Idrîsî Ensemble will perform at St Paul's Church in Birmingham on 2 October 2026. Tickets for the concert exploring medieval trios and quartets are priced from £25.00.
Idrîsî Ensemble explore the interweaving of science and the sacred through geometry, arithmetic, and symbolism in a programme of medieval trios and quartets, creating “a serene, hypnotic and reverent soundscape that feels like a voyage through sonic time.”
Medieval writers often spoke of music in three interlocking dimensions: musica mundana (cosmic order), musica humana (the harmony of the human being - body and soul), and musica instrumentalis (the audible music of voices and instruments). Music was not merely something we make; it was also something we are inside of.
The cosmos has order; the human has order; sounding music is a mirror and a training ground for both. To sing or play was therefore not only to perform, but to rehearse a way of being in tune - with oneself, with others, and with the world. For this performance, Idrîsî Ensemble director Thomas Fournil leads a group of six singers to explore trivium and quadrivium.
