The Paris Classik orchestra was born out of a long‐standing friendship between its musicians. Bertrand Cervera, soloist with the Orchestre National de France, created the Paris Classik orchestra in 2008, which is produced by Euromusic. This was an opportunity for him to bring a group together and return to a smaller, more intimate ensemble in order to rediscover the pleasure of chamber music. The Paris Classik orchestra is driven by a breath of fresh air, approaching baroque, classical, and contemporary music with the conviction that music is alive, that it is a matter of dialogue, truth, sparkle, and vibration. Performing more than 100 concerts a year, notably during the musical season at the Sainte Chapelle in Paris, the orchestra is made up of soloists from the greatest Parisian ensembles.
Experience an exhilarating musical journey to the heart of classical music. Paris Classik invites you to enjoy an experience that combines tradition and emotion, with the sounds of Vivaldi's masterpieces and the intense melodies of Schubert and Caccini. The Paris Classik Orchestra's performance makes every note vibrant and authentic, transporting you to a world where the magic of sacred Christmas carols blends with the depth of classical music. Treat yourself to an immersion in melodies of timeless beauty that awaken the soul and celebrate the holiday season with passion.

Come and discover the PARIS CLASSIK orchestra's interpretation during an unforgettable concert.

Stéphane Hénoch, violinist with the Orchestre National de France
After studying at the Paris Conservatoire, Stéphane Hénoch joined the Orchestre National de France, with which he has performed both in France and abroad under the baton of such great conductors as Bernstein, Muti, Maazel, Masur, and Haitink.
Alongside symphonic music, he enjoys venturing into other genres such as jazz (Grapelli, Legrand, Le Lann, etc.), film scores (Legrand, Desplat, etc.) and the Paris Classik ensemble.
