Press & awards
An overview of recent press reviews, our press releases and the awards we received for our artistic projects.
In the press
"Tenor Reinoud Van Mechelen is one of those rare artists who elude all classification. […] The miracle is that each of his interpretations amounts to a true achievement. He conducts with a natural ease that feels entirely self‑evident, and turns to the audience for his Evangelist’s récit with a humanity that is truly rare."
Le Figaro
July 2025
“Tenor Reinoud Van Mechelen, who also directs the performances, is on characteristically athletic form, delivering all, and especially Pygmalion's ariette 'Règne, amour' with fluency and grace.”
BBC Music Magazine
November 2025
"Anna Besson’s sound is clear and brings out all the poetry of the music, tracing in the space harmonies of absolute freshness that are a delight to hear, for the ensemble a nocte temporis, directed by Reinoud Van Mechelen, is perfectly in tune."
Crescendo Magazine
November 2025
“Reinoud Van Mechelen is an international star to cherish. He conducts his ensemble a nocte temporis, which plays fresh, light and in beautiful dialogue.”
