French countertenor. Studied the organ and flute before meeting the countertenor Alfred Deller in 1976 and becoming his pupil.
In 1978 Dominique Visse founded the Ensemble Clément Janequin, recording French polyphonic chansons of the 16th Century. The following year he became one of the founding members of Les Arts Florissants.
Though he has sung mainly the baroque and early repertoire with famous conductors such as René Jacobs, Philippe Herreweghe, Ton Koopman or William Christie among others, he doesn't limit himself to this repertoire. He has also performed in operas by Offenbach, Poulenc, Berio or Dusapin.
