Tiburtina Ensemble

**Tiburtina Ensemble** is a Prague-based vocal group specializing in medieval and Renaissance music, bringing dusty manuscripts to life with scholarly care and vivid performances. Founded by soprano and musicologist Barbora Kabátková, the ensemble digs deep into Europe’s sacred and secular traditions, from mystic Gregorian chants to lively troubadour songs. Their work often revolves around reconstructing forgotten gems, like their exploration of the 15th-century *Jistebnický kancionál* (a Czech Hussite manuscript) or the dramatic *Codex Las Huelgas* from Spain. Recent projects, such as *Cor Europae: Christmas in Mediaeval Prague* and *Paradisi porte*, showcase their knack for weaving storytelling with historical authenticity, whether reviving angelic motets tied to medieval art or celebrating female composers like Hildegard von Bingen. Tiburtina’s releases balance academic rigor with warm, accessible energy—perfect for both early music nerds and curious newcomers.
