Nocturnalia Ensemble is composed of three young performers (violin, cello/gamba and historical keyboards) who look to offer fresh concerts to its audiences, capable of awakening in the listeners the different emotions and feelings that 17th and 18th-century composers tried to express in their music. We believe that Early Music is tremendously contemporary, given the degree of freedom that offers to performers, and the unique creativity that improvisation and ornamentation create.


As an ensemble, Nocturnalia was born in 2021 as part of the EEEmerging+ program, founded by members of its academy. We performed our first concert in Athens in January 2023 and since then we have been lucky to be chosen as part of the Fringe Scheme of both Utrecht Early Music Festival and Contratemps Festival. We have also played concerts in Slovenia as part of our Flora Carniola tour and we have future plans of performing again in Ljubljana and also in London at the Foundling Museum. We have also been selected by a jury directed by William Christie as semi-finalists in the Loire International Early Music Competition.
