Charites is a female trio committed to bringing the art
of early composers to life through bold, expressive performances.
The group draws on both historical and modern practices to create
theatrical spectacles, combining virtuosic singing, movement and poetry
to involve, delight and move listeners. Charites’ imaginative approach
appeals to seasoned audiences, as well as those who are experiencing
early music for the first time.
The women of Charites have a wealth of experience performing early music
and the works of modern composers. Their credits include recordings and
performances with esteemed ensembles in New York and around the world.
Also accomplished scholars, they are often invited to lead master classes
and workshops in conjunction with their performances. They have presented
lectures across the United States and in England, France and Austria.
Charites (Χαριτες)
is the Greek term for the "Graces," the three
mythological daughters of Zeus and Eurynome.
The Graces govern traits such as charm, beauty, and
creativity, all of which we aim to transmit through
our performances.
