This year's festival looks at what happens when popular culture and high art meet and mingle: when tunes played at a peasant's wedding find their way into the music played at a castle feast, when hurdy-gurdy and bagpipes become the fashion at court and when baroque harp becomes the instrument of the people. A foot-tapping weekend of simple melody and complex harmony in the liveliest medieval town in Europe!
