Interview

From old notes to new blossoms
Paul Van Nevel on his succession and the Huelgas compass

After a career spanning over 55 years, Paul Van Nevel finds himself at a turning point. Over the coming years, German tenor Achim Schulz will gradually take on a larger role within the Huelgas Ensemble. During Laus Polyphoniae, Van Nevel and Schulz will each have their moment: one ensemble, two concerts, two visions. A unique opportunity to witness how a lifetime’s work is slowly passed on, and how early music remains alive in new hands. Julie Hendrickx in conversation with Paul Van Nevel.
