Local alt-folk / classical band iyatraQuartet are back at BPCG! The four versatile musicians bring violin, cello, clarinets, percussion, charango and vocals to create original material and a unique sound.
For their return to the Greenhouses, they will be playing material from their new album, Wild Green. The album follows the cycle of the year with a focus on the natural world. With over ten years playing together and two critically acclaimed albums, iyatraQuartet have built a reputation as an exciting live act performing original music that engages diverse audiences.
“Absolutely beautiful” Cerys Matthews, BBC 6 Music
“Music that brings us closer to nature, ourselves, and each other… A beautiful album that is a must-listen.” Jazz.Fun.de
About iyatraQuartet
iyatraQuartet make original music rooted in ancient melodies and folk tales. Their distinct vocal harmonies emerge from a rich sound world of soaring strings, the exuberant lyricism of the bass clarinet and sensitive percussion abound with groove. Delving into generations-old European traditions for inspiration, particularly the work of 12th century pioneering female composers, iyatraQuartet re-imagine early music and stories through their unique contemporary twist. Taking their name after the Hindi word for travel or pilgrimage, the band embraces this sense of journey through place and time in their music.
