Jean-Michel Fumas has studied piano, organ and singing and specialised in baroque music at the Studio Baroque Opera de Versailles. He has performed early music with the most celebrated French ensembles, including La Fenice and Il seminario Musicales and has become established as a concert soloist. He excels in Dowland’s Elizabethan airs. This CD illustrates his artistry, beautifully accompanied by the Eliza Consort.
