# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Medusa Quartet
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 12 Apr, 2026 at 02:00 pm (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: If you’ve ever had a yen to unearth and discover ancient and forgotten musical instruments, today’s performance is for you. Sunday Afternoon Live has the rare privilege of welcoming an ensemble of musicians who are not just performing artists. They are music historians whose work will introduce us to instruments seldom seen outside of museums. The magical thing about  Medusa Quartet is that these historians also create the loveliest and most haunting music with these instruments, and they show us how the strange and sometimes-dismissed can intertwine with the ordinary to produce something profound and beautiful.
Medusa Quartet —Saskia Tomkins, Marta Solek, Geo Hathaway, and Lea Kirstein—introduce us to instruments with names like knee-fiddle, suka, nyckelharpa, and plock fiddle. These are instruments found in archaeological digs, museums, and even trash heaps of old. According to their official website, “Medusa  the band aims to [bring back] what has been cast out…they resurrect…near-forgotten traditional folk fiddles with disreputable connotations, rejected and [sometimes literally] buried in their home countries of Poland and Sweden.” These strange- looking instruments play beautifully alongside the more familiar and modern viola, fiddle, and cello, and conjure up haunting melodies from Ireland, Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean, Appalachia, and Scandinavia.

The award-winning performers of Medusa Quartet have made it their mission to lift up that mythical Gorgon Medusa, “wielding a sound that would turn classical music scholars to stone… Medusa  tempts us to redefine what is beautiful.” They work to provide “inspiration for anyone who has been denied their true self.” By showing that even the discarded and maligned can have value, Medusa Quartet expands our understanding of what is precious.
