Il Parrasio

Fringe: Il Parrasio

This concert is part of the free fringe programme of the Festival Oude Muziek Utrecht 2024.

Ensemble Il Parrasio was formed in February 2024 at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague. Consisting of musicians from diverse backgrounds, including Italy, Slovenia, Japan, and the USA, the ensemble quickly developed a unique collaborative spirit. In May 2024, Ensemble Il Parrasio was honored to be selected for two prestigious events: the Academy Gli Incogniti and the semi-finals and the finals of the CIMA International Early Music Competition in France.
