Belgian soprano Griet De Geyter lost her heart to vocal baroque music. Some of her most treasured projects were a video recording of Bach's Matthew Passion with the Netherlands Bach Society for www.allofbach.com, the opera production Dido & Acis with The Ministry of Operatic Affairs and projects with il Gardellino, Collegium Vocale Gent, the Netherlands Bach Society, Collegium Marianum, Le Poème Harmonique and BachPlus. She has worked with conductors such as Philippe Herreweghe, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Paul Dombrecht, Bart Van Reyn, Richard Egarr, Bart Naessens, Václav Luks and Jos van Veldhoven. As a soloist, Griet is at home in all the great works from the oratorio and orchestral repertoire: passions and cantatas by Bach, masses by Mozart, symphonies by Mahler, Handel's Messiah, Solveig in Grieg's Peer Gynt, and the great works of Mendelssohn, Pergolesi, Boccherini, Vivaldi and Fauré. Together with her brother, clarinetist Rik De Geyter, and pianist Nicolas Callot, she made a video recording of Mahler's Das Himmlische Leben as a trio M E L E A S, with as next project a Schubertiade on historical instruments. Griet's collaboration with the keyboard duo Zeitspiel (Nicolas Callot & Bart Rodyns) resulted in a live recording of Clara's heart, a concert program around Clara Schumann, released digitally by Warner Classics / Klara at the end of 2019. Griet De Geyter has a large discography with different ensembles. Her solo CD Stille Klagen with German baroque music for soprano and baroque orchestra - il Gardellino - was released in september 2020 by the Passacaille label. In 2022, a new CD with the Schubertiade program from M E L E A S will be released. After her master's degrees in singing and recorder at the Lemmens Institute in Leuven, she started at the Netherlands Opera Academy. In 2007 she graduated "magna cum laude" from the Royal Conservatory of The Hague, where she also received the "Ruim Baan Voor Talent" prize for further studies with Jard van Nes and Margreet Honig. She attended song master classes with, among others, Jozef De Beenhouwer, Rudolf Jansen, Christian Gerhaher, Udo Reinemann, Petteri Salomaa and Françoise Pollet.
