Zespół Muzyki Dawnej Perfugium

Zespół Muzyki Dawnej Perfugium is a Polish ensemble that was formed in 1997 by a group of young people singing in the schola of the Dominican pastoral center "Przystań" in Kraków. The group specializes in performing early music, particularly religious pieces from the Middle Ages, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. Over the years, they have performed in various venues across Poland, including churches, synagogues, and concert halls. Perfugium has released several albums, such as "Dzięki Ci Panie – Missa de Misericordia," "Alfa i Omega," "Inviolata," and "Gdy się rodzi Zbawca świata." Their repertoire also includes more recent releases like "Kraków – Pępek świata" and "Cantigas de Santa Maria." The ensemble is led by Mateusz Kowalski, who serves as its artistic director.

Perfugium's performances often take place at the Church of St. Mark in Kraków and other significant religious sites. They have collaborated with various artists and have been involved in numerous musical projects, including liturgical events and cultural festivals. The group's commitment to preserving and promoting early music has earned them recognition and accolades in Poland's choral music scene.
