Niccolo Seligman
COMPOSER
Niccolo Seligmann (they/them) is currently the most widely-heard medieval fiddler in the world, featured in soundtracks from Netflix’s The Witcher, Firaxis Games’ Civilization VI, Obsidian Entertainment’s Pentiment, and many more big-budget and indie games, films, and streaming series. Niccolo’s opera and live theatre works includes Eleanor: A Trans Medieval Opera, Julie Monster: A Queer Baroque Opera, An Iliad, Minerva: Times Change, and a full-length electronic dance remix of Dave Malloy’s Ghost Quartet. They perform diverse genres nationally with early and traditional music ensembles Aesop’s Nightingale, Alkemie, The Broken Consort, Concordian Dawn, Hesperus, Magdalena, Utopia Early Music, Washington Bach Consort, and Wherligig. When not teaching, touring with their ensembles, or recording soundtracks, Niccolo can be found gleefully recording harsh noise, lo-fi dance music, glitchcore, and drone metal in their home studio in the forests of central Maryland. They hold a B.M. in Viola da gamba Performance from Peabody Institute of Johns Hopkins University, where they now direct the Peabody Renaissance Ensemble.
