A work by composer Giulia Lorusso for Les Métaboles

Musical moments offered by Les Métaboles in a small group (four singers, generally) who perform in the city in order to reach a wide audience

This program spans over three centuries of history, notably revealing the aesthetic shock experienced by 19th-century French composers upon discovering the beauties of the Italian Renaissance. A journey conceived by conductor Léo Warynski and his ensemble Les Métaboles, a revelation in recent years in the field of choral music.

A major masterpiece and the greatest mystery in the history of music, Mozart’s Requiem will be performed in a version completed by Michael Ostrzyga, faithful to the composer’s spirit. This legendary work is presented in a fresh light, introduced by Philippe Hersant’s *À Mnémosyne*, serving as a poetic and meditative prelude before the dramatic intensity of the Requiem unfolds.

Featuring the Orchestre de la Garde républicaine and the participation of the amateur choirs L’Aubade, Chorustodunum,Divertimento, La Petite Cantate, Singall, A Grand Vent.

 From Renaissance polyphony to contemporary works, Après un rêve traces a vocal journey from Josquin Desprez to Ondrej Adamek, via Brahms, Fauré, Debussy, and Ravel. Les Métaboles, in a small ensemble, present a sensitive and poetic program...

From Francis Poulenc to Leonard Bernstein, via Arvo Pärt and Julia Wolfe, this program charts a spiritual journey marked by contemplation, inner tension, and shared momentum.

Beneath the vaults of Vézelay, Les Métaboles and the Orchestre national de Metz Grand Est, conducted by Léo Warynski, weave a sensitive dialogue between silence, prayer, and choral energy. Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms bring the evening to a close in a luminous jubilation, where singing becomes a collective gesture and a space of brotherhood.

Their voices “come very close to the heavenly spheres” (La Croix): 
Les Métaboles, the choir directed by Léo Warynski, gather near Madrid. Featuring two leading composers: Domenico Scarlatti, music master at the court of the King of Spain and composer of a Stabat Mater for ten voices that rivals the angels; and Arvo Pärt, who, following the March 11, 2004, attacks in the Spanish capital, wrote a Da Pacem Domine imbued with a sense of eternity.
