Arjan Dokter (Counter-tenor, Baritone)

Born: The Netherlands

The Dutch counter-tenor and baritone, Arjan Dokter, began his singing career in the Holland Boys Choir as a boy soprano and thereby took part in the complete Bach cantatas.

Since 2005, Arjan Dokter sings baritone in Urker Mannen Ensemble and besides big stage experience he has also participated in many CD and DVD recordings. He sings over 20 years successfully with Pieter Jan Leusink and therefore has since set up a fixed position with The Bach Choir of the Netherlands as a countertenor . He sings since 2010 in Vocal Group CALL. There he appears alongside his high counter-tenor voice also with a beautiful deep voice for the popular genre. His singing coach is the counter-tenor Sytse Buwalda.
