Resurgam is a professional choir based in Dublin. Resurgam makes a unique and distinctive contribution to Ireland’s musical life, and is widely acknowledged to be one of the country’s most accomplished vocal ensembles. The choir was established in 2003 and is a project-based ensemble of up to 24 voices comprising some of Ireland’s finest choral singers. A particular feature of the choir’s work is the presentation of the great sacred repertoire of the renaissance and Baroque periods, frequently in partnership with the Irish Baroque Orchestra, with whom the group enjoys a special and ongoing relationship.
Resurgam has performed in many venues throughout Ireland and also in the UK, and has featured in several major Irish festivals, including the Cork International Choral Festival, Ardee Baroque and the Galway Early Music Festival. The choir has worked with many internationally renowned conductors, including Laurence Cummings, Christian Curnyn and Gary Cooper, as well as its own founder-director Mark Duley. In 2008 Resurgam participated in Orchestra of St Cecilia: Bach Cantata Project.
Resurgam is supported by its very generous friends and patrons, and in 2009 by the Arts Council/An Chomhairle Ealaíon. |
