Picardy Players
The Picardy Players was formed in 2023 to present early music and contemporary compositions side-by-side on historical instruments through multi-sensory storytelling experiences. In their performances they revive microtonal tuning systems from Renaissance Italy to transport the audience to a mysterious sonic realm.
They are a flexible ensemble made up of:
Mariana Rodrigues soprano
Emma van der Scheer mezzo-soprano
Robert Folkes tenor
Allyn Wu baritone
Madison Marshall viola
Elizabeth van ’t Voort viola
Lizzie Knatt recorders
Philip Turner lute
Bonnie Scott triple harp
James Batty harpsichord/composer
