400 years of French Motets: Eglise Notre‐Dame des Blancs Manteaux
Paris, Eglise Notre‐Dame‐des‐Blancs‐Manteaux — Main Hall
About the Event
The Choeur de Paris invites you to discover a programme exploring the diversity and depth of the French motet — a musical form where faith, language, and music come together to express the invisible.
From the solemn grandeur of Rameau (In convertendo), the pictorial sonorities of Mondonville (In exitu Israel), to the delicacy of Couperin (Tantum ergo Sacramentum), the journey leads us towards the intimate, symbolist harmonies of Fauré (Les Djinns), before opening onto the contemporary spirituality of David Chaillou (Nunc dimittis).
This is a musical journey spanning four centuries of history, alternating between brilliance, contemplation, and light.
This concert offers a unique opportunity to discover hidden gems, rarely heard on French stages. Allow yourself to be surprised by the richness and variety of this exceptional repertoire, which promises to take you off the beaten track and awaken your musical curiosity. Come and experience something unprecedented, full of emotion and discovery, where each work reveals hidden treasures and offers the audience a privileged moment of listening and sharing.
