2025-2026 Season

More than any other instrument, the organ is all about transmission, with the great masters passing on to their disciples both the instruments they have played and the poetics they have developed. Olivier Latry will use his talent to trace these illustrious and fascinating lines of succession.

Louis Vierne and Marcel Dupré: two illustrious names that will forever mark 20th-century organ music. Both were connected to Notre-Dame de Paris, and both musicians were intimately familiar with Aristide Cavaillé-Coll's legendary instruments: they mastered their colors, character, dynamics, poetry...

Between shadow and light, this concert offers a meditation on life, death, and the afterlife, subjects that have preoccupied composers since the earliest centuries. Two visions of death will be contrasted: one solemn, the other fantastical and burlesque.

The organ, an instrument of polyphony but also of abundant sound, was long considered an orchestra in its own right. For this concert, Thierry Escaich, musician of many talents, combines creation, improvisation, and interpretation at the highest level, three aspects that are inseparable from his art.
