Intarsia

Intarsia is a duo of performers from diverse backgrounds.  Jo May and Sarah Matthews have worked together since 2018, combining voice, violin, viola, octave fiddle, tenor guitar, balafon and a wide range of other percussion instruments. The sounds of these wooden instruments blend to create intricate delivery of original and traditional material inspired by English songs, European dance tunes, West African rhythms and more.

Intarsia’s debut album ‘Sistere’ was released in October 2020.

They’ve delivered numerous folk concerts (a mix of instrumentals and songs) and workshops, and often combine both forms in an evening of audience participation and engaging entertainment.

Their live performances include London, Sidmouth, Bristol, Derby, Broadstairs and Upton-upon-Severn Folk Festivals and many other smaller venues around UK.
