 Ensemble Clément Janequin

Ensemble Clément Janequin (Early Music Ensemble)

Formed: 1978

The Ensemble Clément Janequin is a French early music ensemble founded in 1978 and specializing in the chansons of the Renaissance and early Baroque.

The founder, and leader, is the countertenor Dominique Visse. The group has recorded almost exclusively for the Harmonia Mundi label of the late Bernard Coutaz since its inception.

An early line up of the Ensemble in 1985, for the Meslanges recording, included Josep Cabré (Baritone), Philippe Cantor (Baritone), Michel Laplénie (Tenor), Gérard Lesne (Haute Contre), Agnès Mellon (Soprano), Antoine Sicot (Bass) and direction Dominique Visse. Cabré, Laplénie, and Lesne all subsequently founded their own ensembles, as well as Bruno Boterf (tenor) who was a member of the Ensemble from 1987 to 2007 before founding his own vocal ensemble, Ludus Modalis.
