Diabolus in Musica – Medieval Minstrels

They are a merry band of professional minstrels who provide a truly authentic flavour of Elizabethan England. Their music, instruments and costumes are all accurately researched, but not hardened academics.They play music that's an instant hit with most audiences.

They use 16th century improvisation techniques to keep the music fresh. Every performance is different, and they make sure that the tempo, style and instrumentation change regularly. No-one gets bored at a Diabolus gig.

They are an obvious choice for any event with a Tudor theme, or Medieval if you're not being too precise. But the event doesn't have to be historical. Many people book them just because they sound good, look pretty, and make them laugh. They are experienced entertainers, and specialise in breaking ice.

They blend in - no amplifiers, no music stands, no stage required. Just gorgeously attired musicians producing professional, colourful, exciting music, live and unplugged. And they're versatile. If the timings don't go to plan, they can adapt.

They provide more than just music. Paul's stentorian tones are useful for announcements, David can provide trumpet fanfares, and gadget addicts love the hurdy-gurdy. If your guests are up for a bit of participation, they'll get them singing, dancing and generally making fools of themselves. For really keen dancers, they invented the Tudor Ceilidh.

Hi Lyndsey

Yes Paul had some TV advertising which made his day. Everyone commented on them and how it made the day, I was told by the main organiser that that was the best ever in over 27yrs!! – Which was brilliant. They would like to hire Paul (Musica in Diabolous) again next year – which is great to hear the day after the event! - Nikki - Walsall Town Centre - Fri 24th April 09
