Meet Me in the Maze takes in nine centuries of music from Hildegard of Bingen to JS Bach to James Blake, Machaut to Meredith Month, exploring mazes, puzzles and the navigation of the unknown. Hildegard’s antiphon praising 'Wisdom' that 'circles all things' and Bach's setting of Paul Thymich’s poem describing Jesus as the 'right path, the truth and the life' sit alongside the playful music of Machaut, quasi improvisatory work from Meredith Monk, pieces from Kerry Andrew and Alec Roth, and an arrangement of James Blake's Meet You in the Maze
The singers of echo first performed together when they were on Genesis Sixteen, the young artists programme run by Harry Christophers and The Sixteen.
