Camerata Cayrasco
Camerata Cayrasco
Camerata Cayrasco is an ensemble dedicated to the performance of secular music - and sacred music when in a domestic context - linked to academies, private residences and theatres. Camerata Cayrasco has a particular interest in the artistic and musical scene in the Canary Islands. The group takes its name from Bartolomé Cairasco de Figueroa (1538-1610), the Canarian poet, playwright and musician, founder of the first humanist academy in the Canary Islands.
