Биография

Seraphic Fire is an ensemble dedicated to the concert performance of the breadth of history’s musical works for the human voice. Lauded by Gramophone for its “mellifluous, crystalline artistry,” Seraphic Fire has gained an international reputation for dynamic, cutting-edge, and historically informed programming that encompasses both secular and sacred literature. The ensemble’s roster is populated by performers, teachers, and scholars who represent the best of the American school of vocal and instrumental training. Established in 2002, Seraphic Fire is led by its founder, Patrick Dupre Quigley. Throughout its two-decade history, the ensemble has commissioned and premiered works by American composers including Alvaro Bermudez, Shawn Crouch, Douglas Cuomo, Sydney Guillaume, James Kallembach, Susan LaBarr, Ileana Pérez Velázquez, Jake Runestad, and Christopher Theofanidis. With their newest release, Hildegard of Bingen: Ordo Virtutum, Seraphic Fire will have released 16 recordings on its Seraphic Fire Media label. Several of the ensemble’s recordings have topped the classical music charts. Two – Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem, Op. 45 and Seraphic Fire Christmas– have received GRAMMY® nominations.
