Demestvo Ensemble

Named after a Slavic polyphonic chant tradition, Demestvo is a quartet founded by musicology PhD student and soprano Anastasia Shmytova. Conceived as part of her dissertation research on medieval Slavic chant and early polyphony, Demestvo is committed to bringing the unique sound world of this unheard music to contemporary audiences.
