About
A composer admired by his contemporaries, Josquin Desprez (ca 1450-1521) was a solitary artist who sublimated in his chansons the melancholy character and the elegance emblematic of the Renaissance. For their first recording, Dulces Exuviae explore the intimacy of these chansons in a fresh light: the sweet melodies are embellished by ornaments and accompanied on the lute, leaving ample room for improvisation, and thus allowing music to come out all the more alive, delicate and filled with emotion.

Awards and reviews
October 2019
This recording unveils some of his most beguilingly lovely works…Baritone Romain Bockler’s rich, velvet voice captures their predominantly wistful mood, and lutenist Bor Zuljan realises their intricate accompaniments with effortless grace…In sum, these are revelatory readings to which I’ll return again and again.
September 2019
Romain Bockler’s brooding voice sustains the entire recital. His willingness to ornament so consistently is to be applauded, though it’s not always a spontaneous as one might wish. Bor Zuljan is a sympathetic accompanist, seldom needing to draw attention to himself.
