Founded in 2015 as a study group at the conservatory, Entrebescant is, since 2020, an ensemble of musicians and musicologists specialised in medieval and traditional Iberian repertoire. During 2023, we have been selected for several calls for emerging ensembles in Spain: AIEenRuta, EcosLabs - Festival de Música Antigua de Sierra Espuña, Early Music Morella FRINGE, Dinamizartj and Música en los Museos Nacionales de España (Musae). We have also appeared twice on Radio Clásica, in the programme 'Andante con moto'.
Our activity as researchers and our dedication to medieval and traditional repertoires give us access to a multitude of sources that allow us to approach forgotten repertoires. We look at the medieval period through its music and stories, with the aim of showing situations that we believe are still relevant. We try to bring to our days characters from remote times whose lives provoke reflections for the present.
Alaia Belaunzaran, Livia Camprubí, Bea Peña, Pablo F. Cantalapiedra and Víctor Gallego combine our dedication to historical and traditional music with our love of history and ancient letters. We have among us two researchers in the area of medieval music at the Complutense University, a singer and philologist with a passion for traditional music, a harpist who specialises in historical harps and a percussionist who collaborates with a multitude of groups dedicated to ancient and traditional music. This allows us to explore oral and written traditions, giving voice to sounds and stories silenced by time.
