Ensemble Vocal Sul Fiato (Vocal Ensemble) |

Founded: June 2012 - Paris, France |

Created by Matthieu Cabanès in June 2012, Ensemble Vocal Sul Fiato
(= EVSF) brings together amateur and professional singers. Literally meaning “on the breath”, Sul Fiato brings together singers of very good level and willing to sing in small groups, 1 to 3 per part, in order to meet the vocal and musical requirements of the interpretation of the early repertoire. The approach favors in-depth listening as well as fine management of breathing in its relationship with prosody, with a view to serving the musical intention as accurately as possible.
They work on their scores individually and meet once a month. The deciphering of the scores is done before rehearsals and requires personal work for each member. Rehearsals take place twice a month. The programs covered can be a cappella, accompanied by piano or with chamber orchestras. The vocal ensemble is in partnership with the Orchestre Bernard Thomas, the Orchestre Erasme de Thibault Back and Susanna Cazadieu on piano.
The musical priority of the ensemble is the work of sound and the homogeneity of the music stands. A good level of music theory and good vocal technique are therefore essential to be part of the ensemble. |
