Raphaële Kennedy
sopran
Soloist and polyphonist, Raphaële Kennedy devotes her artistic life to the interpretation of early music and to the creation of contemporary works, with the same demand to draw out the palpitation of meaning and the same desire to give a taste of it in order to convey its emotion.
First recognized with Jordi Savall, François Lazarevitch and Les Musiciens de Saint-Julien, Jean-Marc Aymes and Concerto soave, Guido Balestracci and L'Amoroso, Jean Tubéry and La Fenice, A Sei Voci, the European ensemble William Byrd, Les Paladins, Le Poème Harmonique, Les Demoiselles de Saint-Cyr..., she appears at major festivals and on numerous recordings dedicated to early music.
She has also become a benchmark in contemporary creation, performing in internationally renowned concert halls and festivals. The dedicatee of numerous works and working closely with composers and electroacousticians, she is notably the voice of visual concerts by Kaija Saariaho and Jean-Baptiste Barrière, and the heroine of Philippe Leroux's opera L'Annonce faite à Marie, the title role in Laurent Cuniot's opera L'Enfant inouï, Pierre-Adrien Charpy's preferred interpreter, and in demand by Robert Pascal, Mauro Lanza, Gianvincenzo Cresta, Matteo Franceschini, Ben Foskett, Loïse Bulot and Bertrand Wolff.
A specialist in recitals for solo voice and electronics, she is also a regular guest artist with the ensembles tm+ (Laurent Cuniot), Multilatérale and Les Métaboles (Léo Warynski), Ars Nova (Benoît Sitzia) and Regards. She was a permanent member of Solistes XXI (Rachid Safir).
She is artistic director of Da Pacem, a company dedicated to early music, contemporary creation and cultural dialogue, founded with composer Pierre-Adrien Charpy. It is within this framework - from duos to small ensembles and multidisciplinary or multimedia performances - that she freely bases her work on sensuality, theatricality and rhetoric. She thus favors the embodied transparency of the voice, the accuracy of style, the brilliance that emerges from the angle of the word, and the declamatory gesture that makes music the amplification of speech.
She has made some forty recordings, and in 2016, with composer Pierre-Adrien Charpy and video photographer Isabelle Françaix, founded the Avec musical and visual collection for the Cypres label.
