📅 Date: 30th April 2025

📍 Venue: DB Music, London

⏰ Doors Open: 6:30 PM

🎟️ FREE ENTRY

Join us for an evocative and intimate evening of music with Intesa, a critically acclaimed duo formed at the Royal Academy of Music by Lucine Musaelian (voice) and Nathan Giorgetti (viola da gamba). This free concert is proudly presented by Local & Live in Hackney in collaboration with DB Music and with the generous support of Hackney Council.

Rooted in a spirit of collaboration, Intesa—Italian for “understanding”—brings voice and viol together in unique harmony, blending folk and early music traditions from across Europe and Armenia. Their programming explores narrative and self-accompaniment, offering a fresh, moving perspective on historical and cultural repertoire.

Intesa has captivated audiences across the UK and internationally, with sold-out performances at Handel Hendrix House and Fidelio Cafe, festival appearances in Utrecht, Vienna, and New York, and accolades including a Chamber Music Fellowship at the Royal Academy of Music and the 2024 Tunnell Trust Award.

Don’t miss this one-night-only performance in the heart of Hackney. Come early and let yourself be transported.
