Ensemble Correspondances

Ensemble Correspondances

André Campra’s famous Messe de Requiem did not come about by chance. The work grew out of the rich musical tradition of Notre-Dame in Paris. Composers wrote music for church services there on a daily basis, thereby contributing to the splendour of the French Baroque period, known as the Grand Siècle (c. 1700).

Many of Campra’s colleagues were later forgotten. But tonight, the works of Jean Veillot, François Cosset, Jean Mignon and Pierre Robert will once again be heard alongside Campra’s masterpiece.

Ensemble Correspondances and conductor Sébastien Daucé are among the foremost specialists in this repertoire. With a refined balance between soloists, choir and instruments, they bring this music back to life.
