Fringe: Schola Cantorum Cantus Fugiens
This concert is part of the free fringe programme of the Festival Oude Muziek Utrecht 2026.
Schola Cantorum Cantus Fugiens was founded in Barcelona in 2022 by Chiara Mazzoletti and focuses on Gregorian chant through historically informed performance practice. Since 2024, the ensemble has been female and brings together young singers, instrumentalists and enthusiasts of medieval music. Active across Catalonia and Italy, the Schola combines concerts, liturgical performances and academic research. In 2024, it received the Barcelona Crea grant for artistic research. In 2025, the ensemble won the Micrologus Prize in Arezzo for liturgical monodic chant and received an award at the Barcelona International Gregorian Chant Competition.
