Mike Fentross

April 20, 2016 by

Mike Fentross has more than won his spurs as an early music specialist. He has been active since 1988 as a lutenist and since 1999 as a musical director. He has appeared as a lutenist with musicians including Ton Koopman, William Christie, Yo Yo Ma, Skip Sempé and Gerard Lesne, and can be heard on more than 60 CD recordings.
In 1999 Mike Fentross made his debut as a conductor in a production of the New Opera Academy with the opera La Dafne by Marco da Gagliano. In August 2006, in the presence of Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands, he conducted the Festival Oude Muziek Utrecht’s jubilee production of the modern-day revival of the opera l’Ipermestra by Francesco Cavalli.
Mike Fentross is the founder and artistic director of La Sfera Armoniosa Ensemble and Orchestra and professor of lute and ensemble playing at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague.
