Régis Allard

Orgue

Régis Allard was trained by André Isoir and Michel Chapuis (for several years he had private lessons with the latter) as well as at the Schola Cantorum in Paris, where he graduated. He devotes himself exclusively to the interpretation of early music and participates in numerous events centred on historic instruments in France, Spain, Holland and northern Germany.
He was a prize winner in the International Competition of French Music in Toulouse. His first disk, with pieces by Heinrich Scheidemann on the Arp Schnitger organ in the Stade church in northern Germany, received a Choc from Le Monde de la Musique.
His latest recording, J.S. Bach’s Art of the Fugue under the Hortus label performed on the new instrument of the church Saint Louis en l’Isle in Paris, received critical praise.
