Concert

In SALTWINDS & SPICE Alkemie joins forces with Rose of the Compass, featuring recorder superstar Nina Stern and Armenian-American oud-player and composer Ara Dinkjian. Together, we explore the world of medieval Cyprus, offering a window into a multiethnic entrepot. Hear musical tales of rose-scented fountains, shrines famous for both holy relics and snake-hunting cats, and dynasties founded by mermaids. Featuring French ars subtilior music from the Cyprus Codex (MS. J.II.9) alongside Armenian, Genoese, and Greek folk music. 

This concert will be followed by a reception with the artists featuring traditional Cypriot wines & desserts.
