Myriam Rignol

Viola da gamba player Myriam Rignol became a fixture of the Baroque historical performance scene in the 2010s. She has performed with a variety of leading ensembles, including Correspondances, Pygmalion, and the Ricercar Consort. Rignol was born in Perpignan, in far southern France, in 1988. She took to the viola da gamba as a child and was given lessons from age seven by Christian Sala. She continued her studies with him at the Perpignan Conservatory (C.N.R. Perpignan), earning a diploma there in 2004, and she went on for master's-level studies in Lyon with Marianne Muller. Rignol rounded out her education in 2011 with a year of studies under Rainer Zipperling at the Hochschule für Musik Köln, under the auspices of the European Erasmus program, and with master classes from Jordi Savall, Wieland Kuijken, and Philippe Pierlot, among others. Since then, she has played in a large number of historically inclined Baroque ensembles. From 2011, she has been a professor of viola da gamba at the Conservatoire du Grand Besançon Métropole. With the group A Nocte Temporis, she made her recording debut on the Alpha album Clérambault: Cantates Françaises in 2018. Rignol performed with Pierlot and theorbist Rolf Lislevand in the Ricercar Consort, as well as in Pygmalion with countertenor Raphaël Pichon, in the 17th century-oriented Ensemble Correspondances with keyboardist Sébastien Daucé, and with conductor Patrick Ayrton in Les Inventions, among many others. Rignol is also a co-founder, with violinist Yoko Kawakubo and harpsichordist Julien Wolfs, of the ensemble Les Timbres; that group won first prizes at the International Competition for Ensembles in Bruges, Belgium, and the Competition for Early Music in Yamanashi, Japan. Rignol joined tenor Cyril Auvity and harpsichordist Marie van Rhijn for a Glossa recording of ensemble music of the little-known composer Constantijn Huygens. In 2020, Rignol moved, with other members of the Ricercar Consort, to Mirare for a recording of viol music by Jean de Sainte-Colombe and other French composers. Her debut as a solo artist came in 2021 on the Château de Versailles label with a recording of Bach's Six Suites for solo cello, arranged for viola da gamba. In 2024, Rignol joined flutist Anna Besson and keyboardist Jean Rondeau on the album Corelli, Quentin: Flute Sonatas.
