Presentation

In February 1704, after many years of loyal service to the Sainte-Chapelle, Marc-Antoine Charpentier died, leaving behind him a considerable body of work, recognised today as one of the most incredible creations of French art.
Although he did not have the career that his genius would have deserved, he was a source of inspiration and a model for many of his contemporaries: they all knew him, scrutinised his works and had a particular admiration for him.

Two of them, André Campra and Nicolas Bernier in particular, were particularly inspired by him, even succeeding him after his death: the former in the service of the Jesuits on rue Saint Antoine, the latter as Master of Music at the Sainte-Chapelle. This programme brings together three major artists who rank among the great creators in the service of sacred music at the heart of the Grand Siècle.


Joint production Opéra Royal / Château de Versailles Spectacles, Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles.

Scores by Marc-Antoine Charpentier and Nicolas Bernier published by the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles.
