We are absolutely delighted to be returning to Norway in 2020 for the 20th anniversary of this fantastic event. We will be playing throughout the day around the site as well as presenting a short concert programme in the magnificent glass cathedral.
This concert is hosted by The Matlock Music Society but tickets are available to non-members.
PIVA will be performing their popular Yuletide! show, celebrating the festive season by performing seasonal music and songs from Tudor times. Winter, in the 16th century, could be a harsh time with long nights and little fresh food, but the Twelve Days of Christmas were filled with feasting, music, dancing, singing, games and revelry. It was a time of entertainments, wassailing and mumming on the village green, masques and plays at court. PIVA will be capturing a flavour of these times by playing and singing music of the period and telling tales from the time.
The evening will be a perfect way to drive away the cold, dark nights of winter and prepare you for the Christmas festivities.
The performance consists of 2 x 45 minute sections. There will be an interval of approximately 15 minutes.
