Hexperos is an Italian duo founded in 2004 by Alessandra Santovito (soprano voice, flute) and Francesco Forgione (double bass, cello, bardic harp, viola da gamba, percussions bouzouky, hammer dulcimer and keyboard).Their line up consists of various talented musicians such as the violinists Domenico Mancini and Alessandro Pensa, the harpist Francesca Romana Di Nicola, the percussionist Francesco Savoretti, Paolo Di Nicola at the uilleann pipes, Simone Ranieri at the acustic guitar, the Stella Maris Children's choir directed by Paola Stivaletta, Michele Cinquina at the Tiorba and bassoonist Manuel Manzitti.Their albums often feature ancient instruments such as medieval flute, hammer dulcimer and Appalachian dulcimer played by Alessandra and Francesco.Thanks to her countless experiences, Alessandra can sing in various ways, so that her voice, like their music and her lyrics, ranges from the Mediterranean style to the north European one, from the ancient genre to the modern one.
