The Gesualdo Six

The University of Memphis Rudi E. Scheidt School of Music is pleased to welcome the award-winning British vocal ensemble, the Gesualdo Six.

Praised for their imaginative programming and impeccable blend, the ensemble formed in 2014 for a performance of Gesualdo’s Tenebrae Responsories in Cambridge and has gone on to perform at numerous major festivals across the UK, Europe, North America and Australia.

The ensemble frequently integrates educational work into its activities, regularly holding workshops for young musicians and composers. The School of Music invites you to join us for the Gesualdo Six Artist in Residency.
