RedHouse Arts takes many roads
Compass Rose is the newest incarnation of RedHouse's creative spirit.
Is it a chamber ensemble or a world music band? Medieval or Modern? The answer is both.
The instrumentation consists of acoustic instruments of any kind, from orchestral favorites like cello and oboe to folk and ethnic instruments like hurdy gurdy and didgeridoo. Throw in some classical guitar, voice and rocks (yes, rocks!), and you get a rough idea of our sound.
As for repertoire, Plures Via will be exploring medieval and renaissance music as well world ethnic music, original compositions by ensemble members and contemporary composers like Arvo Pärt. Expect to hear a satisfying blend of Balkan vocal trios and renaissance dance tunes mixed in with large chamber works.
