Viva ! 30 ans d'art choral (LP)

Description

The Bettencourt Schueller Foundation is celebrating 30 years of commitment to choral singing. To mark this occasion, it has brought together 19 excerpts from recordings made by ensembles it has supported since 1989, thanks to the Liliane Bettencourt Choral Singing Prize. The Foundation entrusted the artistic direction of this album to Laurence Equilbey, musical director of the accentus chamber choir and Insula Orchestra, and winner of the Liliane Bettencourt Choral Singing Prize in 1995. This anthology reflects the diversity of repertoires performed by the winners of the Liliane Bettencourt Choral Singing Prize. In addition to accentus, it features William Christie's Les Arts Florissants, Hervé Niquet's Le Concert Spirituel, Raphaël Pichon's Ensemble Pygmalion, Leonardo García Alarcón's Choeur de Chambre de Namur, Geoffroy Jourdain's Les Cris de Paris, Mathieu Romano's Ensemble Aedes, Roland Hayrabédian's Musicatreize, and the Maîtrise de Notre-Dame de Paris directed by Lionel Sow. Viva! 30 ans de chant choral is available on CD and as a double coloured LP.
