Ensemble Correspondances

Ensemble Correspondances

André Campra’s Messe de Requiem does not stand alone. The world-renowned Mass for the Dead grew out of the practice of composers at Notre-Dame who wrote music for the liturgy daily. Sheltered beneath the cathedral’s Gothic vaults, they helped write the glorious story of the Grand Siècle.

Many of Notre-Dame’s Baroque maîtres de musique, Campra’s colleagues, remained forgotten for centuries – until now. For tonight, the compositions of Jean Veillot, François Cosset, Jean Mignon, and Pierre Robert once again stand shoulder to shoulder with Campra’s masterpiece. Ensemble Correspondances and Sébastien Daucé have mastered this repertoire to perfection and ensure a sublime balance between soloists, choir, and instruments.

With an introduction by Annelies Andries (19:15 hrs, in Dutch) and a Q&A session (after the concert, in English), both taking place in the Fentener van Vlissingen Foyer (limited capacity)
