David Yardley
Medieval Songs for Countertenor and Harp: Rebuilt and Reimagined
Join David for a rare opportunity to hear evocative medieval music, on the edge of medieval London at the striking church of St Giles Cripplegate. As well as surviving works of troubadours, you'll hear his own compositions, using medieval and contemporary fantasy texts, influenced and informed by a life-long immersion in medieval sound.
Immersed in Medieval and Renaissance music since his teenage years, David Yardley is a countertenor, medieval harpist and composer. Singing since the age of 8 and composing since the age of 12, music has been a life-long passion.
His critically-acclaimed compositions have been called “transcendent medieval-inspired music for modern times” that “transport our ears back to the medieval world."
All welcome!
