Currende Consort

**Currende Consort** is a Belgian vocal and instrumental ensemble that’s all about bringing Renaissance polyphony to life with warmth and precision. Led by director Erik Van Nevel (part of the renowned Van Nevel musical dynasty), they’ve carved out a niche for reviving masterpieces from the Flemish Renaissance, especially through their ongoing *Masters from Flanders* series. These albums spotlight composers like Josquin des Prez, Pierre de la Rue, and Orlando di Lasso, showcasing Currende’s knack for balancing scholarly rigor with expressive, vibrant performances.

Known for their flexible lineup and historically informed approach, Currende mixes voices and period instruments to create rich, textured interpretations. Their dedication to Flanders’ musical golden age—heard across their multi-volume discography—has made them a go-to for early music lovers craving both authenticity and emotional depth. Whether unearthing rare gems or revisiting iconic works, they keep the spirit of the 15th and 16th centuries fresh and engaging.
