Véronique Gens (born April 19, 1966, Orléans, France) is a French soprano. She has spent much of her career recording and performing Baroque music.
Gens studied at the Conservatoire de Paris and won first prize of the school. Her debut in 1986 was with William Christie and his Les Arts Florissants. She has since worked with Marc Minkowski, René Jacobs, Christophe Rousset, Philippe Herreweghe, and Jean-Claude Malgoire.
While she started out as a Baroque specialist, she has become in demand for roles in Mozart operas, and an interpreter of songs by Berlioz, Debussy (see also Beau Soir), Fauré and others. Her numerous recordings include many works by Mozart and Purcell, as well as Joseph Canteloube's Chants d'Auvergne and Berlioz' Nuits d'Ete. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/V%C3%A9ronique+Gens">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
