Tragicomedia

Emerging Experimental Fusion Group

Tragicomedia is a baroque ensemble that specializes in the performance of early music, particularly from the 16th and 17th centuries. The group was founded by Stephen Stubbs, a lutenist and conductor who has been a prominent figure in the early music scene. Tragicomedia is known for its historically informed performances, which aim to recreate the soundscapes of the Renaissance and Baroque periods with authenticity. They often perform with period instruments and have collaborated with various vocalists and other ensembles to bring early music to contemporary audiences. The ensemble has received critical acclaim for their interpretations of early music compositions, contributing to the revival of interest in this genre.
