The Jimi Sessions - Intesa Duo & Diego Sampieri
Oct 2024
Join us for a truly unique live music experience in Hendrix’s flat. Our musicians will be playing original music throughout the flat, creating unforgettable moments in this historic space. The series will end with a bang at Saint Pancras Old Church to celebrate Jimi’s birthday.
The opening act will fuse contemporary and baroque elements, acknowledging the influence of Jimi’s great musical neighbour, George Frederic Handel. There will then be an interval for you to explore Hendrix’s London pad, after which an intimate acoustic performance will begin in Jimi’s bedroom.
We are thrilled to be joined by Intesa Duo & Diego Sampieri.

Intesa Duo
A singing, songwriting, folk and baroque-playing viol duo.
"Intesa was formed at the Royal Academy of Music by Lucine Musaelian and Nathan Giorgetti. Brought together by our common passion for the sound of the viol, its combination with the voice, the overlap between folk and baroque music, and the performance of new music on viols, our programmes are centred around the art of self-accompaniment across different genres. Our goal as an ensemble is to tell stories in our performances through cultivating what we know about Historical Performance practice in a contemporary context."
