Awakening Sleeping Instruments in Europe<\/h2>

Part of our vision for a fully functional Labyrinth Cyprus Musical Workshop<\/em> is to establish, maintain and expand musical and cultural bonds with other organizations and individuals from across the globe \u2014 regardless of geography, politics, borders and dissimilarities.<\/p>

In order to be able to pursue our goal, we turn towards our own locality and traditions: a solid understanding of our past becomes the springboard for our journey. Historical record and documentation is the foundation of all research into our roots. Cyprus has prime examples of written history (a notable example being the \u201cRecital concerning the Sweet Land of Cyprus, entitled Chronicle\u201d by Leontios Makhairas, 15th century) \u2014 testaments of language, culture and historicity.<\/p>

In terms of music, our record is scattered and, at best, fragmental. Being true to our vision, we collaborated with four other European organizations and embarked on a project to delve deeper into the Medieval period of our musical history. A project having one foot solidly placed in research and the other in its application in contemporary practice, we aimed to consolidate knowledge from the past and present-day modal musical performance, composition and instrument building.<\/p>

Awakening Sleeping Instruments in Europe<\/em> was a programme funded by Creative Europe<\/em> and led by Ripoll Municipality in Catalu\u00f1a, Spain; through mobility and shared cultural heritage, we organized cross-border activities (including musical seminars, instrument building workshops, concerts and research) revolving around Medieval music on a two year timeline, from September 2019 through to September 2021.<\/p>

This project was a joint collaboration between Labyrinth Cyprus Musical Workshop<\/em> and Paraplevros Productions<\/em>.
As a non-profit organisation, Paraplevros <\/em>is an platform for production and management in the performative arts sector with its main emphasis in independent and cross-disciplinary projects. In this venture, Labyrinth Cyprus<\/em> was the creative arm of the project, while Paraplevros<\/em> acted as the legal and managerial entity.<\/p>
