Info zu Josquin Desprez: Septiesme livre de chansons

2021 sees the 500th anniversary of the death of Josquin Des Pres, the most celebrated composer of his day. Dominique Visse and the Ensemble Clément Janequin are recording a selection of his chansons from one of the most important editions of his works, Tylman Susatos Septiesme livre de Chansons published in 1545. This edition bears witness to the diversity of Josquins chanson writing, but above all to the melancholy and sorrow so present in his works, and is clearly a tribute, as is also evident in the two Deplorations on his death, Musae Jovis by Nicolas Gombert and O mors inevitabilis by Hieronymus Vinders. This recording endeavors to present a Josquin legacy, a post mortem illustration of his chanson oeuvre, in remembrance of his musical genius. It has also enabled Dominique Visse and the Ensemble Clement Janequin to express their profound musical passion for this major Renaisance composer who has accompanied them for more than 40 years.

Ensemble Clement Janequin

Dominique Visse
We no longer need to introduce Dominique Visse, his musical eclecticism, his extraordinary personality.

Dominique Visse joined the Maîtrise de Notre-Dame de Paris at the age of 11. At the same time, he began studying organ and flute, which he completed at the Conservatoire national de Versailles. Passionate about medieval and Renaissance music, he met in 1976 the great pioneer of the counter tenor voice, Alfred Deller and became his student. He also worked with Nigel Rogers, René Jacobs and William Christie.

In 1978, Dominique Visse founded the Ensemble Clément Janequin with whom he recorded a series of discs of French polyphonic songs from the Renaissance with Harmonia Mundi, which had become true references in this repertoire. The following year, he joined Les Arts Florissants as a singer and transcriber of the ensemble.

Since then, Dominique Visse has become one of the most sought-after artists in the world of Baroque opera, collaborating with René Jacobs, Jean-Claude Malgoire, William Christie, Philippe Herreweghe, Ton Koopman, Alan Curtis, Nicholas MacGegan, Christophe Rousset, Robert King, Ivor Bolton, Harry Bicket, Emmanuelle Haïm and Vincent Dumestre ... on the stages of the world most prestigious Opera houses in Paris, Berlin, London, Cologne, Amsterdam, Lausanne, Tel Aviv, Houston, Barcelona, Brussels, Munich ... and at the Festivals of Glyndebourne, Aix-en-Provence, Innsbruck and Edinburgh.

Recent commitments include the roles of Lychas (Ercole Amante) at the Opéra Comique un Paris (conducted by Raphaël Pichon), Satirino, La Natura and Furia (La Calisto) at the Bayerische Staatsoper and Teatro Real in Madrid, Arnalta (L'Incoronazione di Poppea) at the Salzburger Festspiele, Delfa and Eolo (Il Giasone) at the Grand Théâtre de Genève and at the Opéra Royal de Versailles, la Vecchia (Rossi's Orfeo ) at the Opéra National de Lorraine, the Opéra royal de Versailles and the Opéra national de Bordeaux.

Also solicited to participate in the creation of contemporary works such as Brice Pauset's Wonderful Deluxe at the Grand Théâtre de Luxembourg, Berio's Outis at La Scala in Milan, Dusapin's Perela, l'homme de fumée at the Opéra de Paris, Manoury's La Frontière at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris, or Benoit Mernier's La Dispute at the Monnaie in Bruxelles, Dominique Visse has recorded over a hundred records, mainly for Harmonia Mundi.

As a conductor his recent engagements include collaborations with the ensemble Café Zimmermann and Aedes (Christmas concerts around works by Marc-Antoine Charpentier), with the Atelier lyrique de Tourcoing (Charpentier's David and Jonathas), and with the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Hungarian Radio Choir (Alessandro Striggio's Mass).
