The Schola Bellarmina is a men choir dedicated to Gregorian chant. Founded in 1998 in Brussels, this formation has produced the only full Gregorian chant repertoire on compact discs currently available.
This full series counts 22 discs and is nearing completion. Considering the didactical purpose of the initial project, accent is laid on accuracy of interpretation, hence the choice of a small number of singers versed in Gregorian chant.
Founded by Father Bernard Lorber, the Schola Bellarmina continues its work under his direction. Originally composed of Brussels singers who recorded the first 14 discs of the full series of Gregorian chant (1998-2001), the Schola Bellarmina has undergone progressive transformations. Nowadays, it is composed of severall French professional singer (among which Hervé Lamy and Vincent Lecornier) who team up for work and recording sessions. The Schola Bellarmina works are edited by Association Sacra Musica.
