By the extent and singularity of his repertoire, his so recognizable timbre and his chiselled diction, Marc Mauillon occupies a very personal place on the current lyrical scene. He works with the conductors W. Christie, M. Minkowski, R. Pichon, C. Rousset, J. Savall, V. Dumestre … and the directors, B. Lazar, I. Alexandre, R. Carsen, … The recital and the chamber music take pride of place in his career. Whether Machaut with Pierre Hamon, Vivabiancaluna Biffi and Angélique Mauillon, Poulenc / Eluard with Guillaume Coppola, these programs always strongly question the relationship between music, poetry and vocality. After having been a professor at Pole Sup 93, Marc Mauillon teaches, since September 2018, the secular medieval music at the University Paris-Sorbonne as part of the Master of Ancient Music (MIMA).

Presentation

The Fondation Royaumont offers a new programme dedicated to the medieval repertoire, aimed at students at the Conservatoire au Rayonnement Régional of Ile-de-France. Over the course of ten days during January and June 2022, 10 candidates unfamiliar with medieval music will have the opportunity to discover the French and Italian solo profane repertoire of the 13th and 14th centuries. These sessions will be supervised by baritone Marc Mauillon, whose recent recordings of the works of Guillaume de Machaut were widely praised. Previously a teacher at the Pôle Sup 93, he has been teaching medieval music interpretation at the Paris Sorbonne University since September 2018.
Following this course, a concert tour will be organised visiting the associated conservatoires.
