CloseThe Mediaeval Baebes’ storybook opened its pages in 1996, when a group of friends broke into a North London cemetery and sang together, clad in flowing white gowns and crowns of ivy. Fourteen years later, these fair maidens have placed three albums in the top of the classical charts.
Pulling lyrics from mediaeval texts and setting them to original scores using mediaeval and classical instruments, whilst singing in an impressive array of long forgotten languages, the Baebes offer a distinctive musical beauty and outstanding talent.
Experience the Mediaeval Baebes’ fairytale whimsy, otherworldly enchantment and supernatural allure this Christmas as the group perform some traditional festive songs amongst a plethora of material from their extensive back catalogue.
