About

Duo Enßle-Lamprecht takes us into the world of medieval love poetry and presents the most beautiful poems by the "Monk of Salzburg" from the 14th century.

Although works by this medieval poet have survived in numerous manuscripts, it has still not been possible to unravel the mystery surrounding his person. By means of their own arrangements of the preserved melodies and colourful instrumentation, the ensemble underlines the most diverse facets of medieval emotions and demonstrates the high artistic value that can be attributed to the repertoire of the anonymous figure of the "Monk".

"Virtuosic, unconventional, and brimming with the joy of playing" – that is how Anne-Suse Enßle (recorder) and Philipp Lamprecht (percussion) present themselves in front of their audience.

Always on the lookout for new and offbeat ideas, they take their audiences on journeys with a seemingly inexhaustible array of various recorder and percussion instruments.

Formed in 2008 in Salzburg, the ensemble specialises in performing medieval music (dances, troubadour songs, and religious music of the time). and music from the Middle Ages.
