Various Artists – Viva 30 Ans D'art Choral

The Fondation Bettencourt Schueller is celebrating thirty years of commitment to choral singing. To mark the occasion, it has decided to bring together nineteen excerpts from recordings made by ensembles it has supported since 1989, thanks to the Liliane Bettencourt Prize for Choral Singing. The Foundation has entrusted the artistic direction of this album to Laurence Equilbey, music director of the accentus chamber choir and Insula Orchestra and winner of the Liliane Bettencourt Prize for Choral Singing in 1995. The anthology reflects the diversity of the repertories performed by the winners of the Liliane Bettencourt Prize. In addition to accentus, the list includes William Christie's Les Arts Florissants, Hervé Niquet's Le Concert Spirituel, Raphaël Pichon's Ensemble Pygmalion, Leonardo García Alarcón's Namur Chamber Choir, Geoffroy Jourdain's Les Cris de Paris, Mathieu Romano's Ensemble Aedes, Roland Hayrabedian's Musicatreize, and the Maîtrise de Notre-Dame de Paris conducted by Lionel Sow.
