I Fagiolini

The vocal group I Fagiolini has combined rigorous performances of Renaissance and contemporary music with innovative ideas about how to present these repertories, including on stage and film. The group was founded at Oxford University in 1986. I Fagiolini performs some 50 concerts annually. In 1994, the group released its debut album, Insalata. In 2007, I Fagiolini provided the music for the film The Full Monteverdi. Its 2017 recording Monteverdi: The Other Vespers assembled a new Vespers service from existing pieces by Monteverdi and his contemporaries. I Fagiolini released an album of music by madrigalist John Wilbye in 2022, returning the following year with a recording of Orazio Benevoli's Missa Tu es Petrus.
