About

The perfect way to get in the mood for the Jorvik Viking Festival (17 to 23 February 2025) and the Holy Trinity Viking Market (21 to 23 February 2025).

Bruni hails from Jorvik, the heart of Viking England. Playing original and traditional Nordic folk music, they blend haunting vocal harmonies with a variety of acoustic instruments. Harps, mandolins, recorders and lyres are all supported by percussion to help weave stories of the frozen north. Singing tales of elves, trolls, enchanters, mermaids and werewolves to drive away the cold of the night.

While the music and instruments might not be entirely authentic, the band aims to evoke the Viking and medieval rather than re-create and to whisk you away on a magical journey into foreign realms where magic still exists.

They will be joined by ElvenDale (bringing the music of the Dark Ages).

Doors: 1830

Support Act (ElvenDale): 1900

Performance will take place by candlelight. This magical venue has remained largely unchanged for 800 years old and contains box pews.

Please note that it may be colder in the building than the temperature outside so do wrap up warmly (although there are some blankets available on request). Some sightlines are limited, but the acoustics are good throughout.

Floors in Holy Trinity are uneven and light levels will be low. Access to toilet facilities on site is limited. Wheelchair access is possible to all parts of the building save the Sunken Chapel. Any questions, please contact york@thecct.org.uk.
