Fiori is a Vocal Ensemble of eight women which was established in Jyväskylä, Finland in 1993. During these active years Fiori has performed a great diversity of repertoire from European traditional music through Medieval and Renaissance music all the way to modern classical compositions.

Contents

In late years Fiori has worked with two Finnish musicians Liisa Matveinen and Tellu Turkka, performing their traditional style compositions and singing stories of women's life. In 2007 begun a cooperation with composer Michael Parsons, when Parsons composed the series Three Sappho songs to Fiori. Again in September 2009 Fiori debuted with Parson's Two Children's song from Antique Creek (the Cicada song and The Swallow song). In summer 2010 the ensemble is performing and recording these compositions in London, UK.
