Wim Maeseele
Wim Maesele, after having spent formative years studying the guitar at the Lemmens Institute, switched to the lute. He studied with Philippe Malfeyt and subsequently with Hopkinson Smith at the Schola Cantorum in Basel. Wim Maesele is much in demand with small and bigger ensembles and as a soloist as well. He is active in renowned ensembles such as the Capilla Flamenca and the Ricercar Consort, and he is a pillar of the ensemble for medieval music La Folata, too. He is the permanent lutist of the baroque orchestra B'Rock. Starting in 2009 he has also been working with Capriccio Stravagante, under the baton of Skip Sempé.
