Biografie (Engelstalig)
Based in the Netherlands, Duo Serenissima was founded by Canadian soprano Elisabeth Hetherington and Dutch lutenist David Mackor in February, 2016. Specializing in the music of the 16th and 17th century, Duo Serenissima has presented programs ranging from English lute song to Venetian opera.
Since their founding, they have been invited to perform in esteemed concert venues such as at the Tivoli Vredenburg (Utrecht), Noorderkerk (Amsterdam) as well as the Stadsgehoorzaal & Schouwburg (Leiden). They performed several times on the Dutch classical radio station Radio 4, and were featured in the 2016 Utrecht Early Music Festival as part of the Fabulous Fringe.
In addition to traditional lute song repertoire, David and Elisabeth are passionate about the incorporation of theatre in their programs as well as the exploration of contemporary music.
