Hervé Niquet
Biography
Hervé Niquet is a rare musician: while some composers and performers are also conductors, few have also managed a successful career as a singer as Niquet has. Moreover, he has not only conducted instrumental ensembles but choral groups. As a composer, he has received prestigious commissions, including one from Princess Caroline of Monaco. As a conductor, Niquet is generally associated with French Baroque music, but it would be unfair to typecast him as a specialist in that vein. He has not only performed and recorded Handel and Purcell but has developed a repertory reaching into the 19th and 20th centuries. Niquet is widely known as the founder and director of Le Concert Spirituel. Since 2022, he has served as the artistic director of the Festival de Saintes. In 2024, Niquet led Le Concert Spirituel on a recording of Charpentier's Médée.
