Stile Antico is firmly established as one of the world’s most accomplished and innovative vocal ensembles. Working without a conductor, its twelve members have thrilled audiences on four continents with their fresh and vibrant performances of Renaissance polyphony.

Stile Antico has appeared at the Wigmore Hall, Amsterdam

Concertbebouw, and Leipzig Gewandhaus, and regularly features at such

prestigious festivals as the BBC Proms and the Antwerp, Utrecht and York

Early Music Festivals. The group tours regularly to the US and Canada,

and has performed in Mexico and Colombia.

Stile Antico’s members rehearse and perform as chamber musicians, each

contributing artistically to the musical results. In addition to its core

repertoire, the group has premiered works by John McCabe, Huw

Watkins, and Nico Muhly, and appeared with such diverse collaborators

as Fretwork, the Folger Consort, Marino Fomenti, B’Rock, and Sting.

“It’s never a good idea to miss a concert from this British vocal ensemble: There are no finer singers of early music.”
