About
Tribal Baroque is the visionary fusion of two extraordinary artists: Thoth and Lila’Angelique. Together, they have created a transcendent art form they call "prayformance"—a spellbinding synthesis of opera, classical violin, dance, theater, and ritual that defies categorization and speaks directly to the soul.
Thoth
Thoth’s journey began in the womb of a symphonic tympanist, where rhythm and resonance first stirred his destiny. A violin prodigy by eight, his path led him through classical mastery under renowned mentors like Mara Dvonch and Harry Glickman. But Thoth was never meant to follow convention. In his twenties, a profound brush with mortality reignited his passion for performance and transformed it into a sacred offering. Performing first in San Francisco’s BART stations and later in New York’s mystical Angel Tunnel, he developed the "prayformance"—an expression of devotion through music, movement, and spirit. His life and art were captured in the Academy Award-winning documentary Thoth(2002).

Lila'Angelique
In 2008, within that same Angel Tunnel, Thoth met Lila’Angelique, a radiant soprano and violinist whose theatrical power and classical virtuosity matched his own. Their meeting was not just serendipitous—it was destined. From that moment on, they became creative and life partners, channeling their individual brilliance into the shared vision of Tribal Baroque.
Lila’Angelique brings to the duo her soaring coloratura soprano voice, expressive violin, and deeply emotive stage presence. With roots in early music, movement, and operatic training, she embodies both raw vulnerability and refined technique, making every performance an invitation to awaken and feel more deeply.
The Dynamic Duo
Together, Tribal Baroque has enchanted audiences across Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas, performing in concert halls, cathedrals, city streets, festivals, and sacred spaces. Their art is more than performance — it’s an act of reverence, an offering of transformation.
Music
To date, they have released twenty-five acclaimed albums — ten from Thoth’s solo work and fifteen as Tribal Baroque. Each recording is a bold journey through sound, story, and spirit.
Now based in Bali, Thoth and Lila’Angelique continue to live, create, and prayform together – breathing life into their art and into all who experience it.
