Continuo Connect — Profile // Joglaresa

Early music's 'bit of rough' - this rebellious London-based medieval/folk band pushes, and often transcends, the limits of what is thought of as early music... Joglaresa embodies the boldness and improvisatory chutzpah that gets straight to the heart of medieval music.

Comprising outstanding international performers from classical, world, folk, and jazz, Joglaresa has a sound that is at once traditional and contemporary - combining intoxicating elements of Medieval, Middle Eastern, Flamenco, and Celtic musics, they create a unique London sound that is both extrovert and intimate.
