Ensemble Irsahm
Ensemble Irsahm is a Belgian group formed of musicians from Créahmbxl (Création et Handicap Mental) and IRSA (Royal Institute for the Deaf and Blind). Together, the group reinterprets the music of Saint-Saens, Hildegard von Bingen, Bach and more with arrangements built around each of the musicians’ strengths including, but not limited to, clarinet, guitar, keyboard, and voice. Their debut EP Spaghetti Subilitor is named after a harmonically and rhythmically complex Medieval music and the favourite dish of the group’s vocalist, Lou, alluding to both the complexity of the music and the playfulness with which the group approaches it. This is the group’s first performance outside of Belgium, a rare and special treat for the audience at Dig That Treasure!.
