Resurgam was founded in 2003 by Mark Duley, and is one of Ireland’s most acclaimed vocal ensembles. Resurgam is the premiere project-based professional choir in the country, and many of its singers have parallel careers as soloists. It inspires audiences and partner choirs the length and breadth of Ireland, bringing alive the emotional drama found in so much vocal music.
Resurgam has given many groundbreaking performances of music from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, including the first Irish period-instrument performance of Bach’s St Matthew Passion. Resurgam’s unique work in the field of early vocal music in Ireland has also extended to the acclaimed single-composer retrospectives the choir has undertaken (including Giovanni Gabrieli, Heinrich Schütz and Orlandus Lassus).
