In 2006, Romain Bischoff has brought together a unique group of professional singers: five soloists, each with his or her own colour and personality, reflecting the eloquent and versatile character of Compagnie Bischoff.
Compagnie Bischoff is a vocal quintet that combines the most ancient with the most recent polyphonic music in its programmes: from Ars Nova to Adriaansz. Leaving specialisms behind, the ensemble aims at a musical dialogue within the rich vocal repertoire of seven centuries.
The Compagnie has found its own esthetics in the characteristics of the individual singers, and uses these in unexpected metamorphoses and combinations, ranging from solo and duet to quintet.
Compagnie Bischoff made its debut during the Holland Festival Oude Muziek Utrecht in August 2006, in two concerts in Vredenburg.
