Founded in 1974 by Christopher Jackson, Réjean Poirier and Hélène Dugal, the mission
of the SMAM is to perform sacred and secular early music, with a particular focus on
choral works composed before 1750, to share the vitality, sensuality, and emotional
depth of early music.
Directed by Andrew McAnerney since 2015, the SMAM is composed of 12 to 18 singers
chosen for the remarkable clarity and purity of their voices.
The SMAM has produced over half a century, a remarkable discography. It’s new
recording, L’Homme armé, is devoted to the early masters of Franco-Flemish polyphony,
and was released on the ATMA Classique label (February 2021).
