Voix Sculptées

Next spring, the Louvre is organizing a meeting of two of the greatest figures in the history of sculpture with the Michelangelo / Rodin exhibition.

From Roland de Lassus's Prophéties des Sibylles, arguably the most Michelangelo-esque composer of the Renaissance, to Debussy's Prélude à l'Après-midi d'un faune, transcribed in a new version for a cappella choir by Thibault Perrine, this program spans more than three centuries of history, notably showing us the aesthetic shock experienced by 19th-century French composers upon discovering the beauties of the Italian Renaissance. A journey imagined by conductor Léo Warynski and his ensemble Les Métaboles, a revelation in recent years in the field of choral music.
