Concert Méditerranée Sacrée - Chamber choir Les éléments, dir: Joël Suhubiette On-site
Scène Nationale du Grand Narbonne FranceBasilique Saint-Paul Serge, Narbonne, 21 rue Arago, Narbonne
The Renaissance masterpieces - Gesualdo's Répons des Ténèbres and Antonio Lotti's Crucifixus - are joined by works in Hebrew by Salomone Rossi, written to introduce polyphony to the synagogue, and contemporary pieces commissioned from the Greek composer Alexandros Markeas and the Lebanese Zad Moultaka.
A true odyssey through six centuries of vocal music, carried by the power of a capella voices, all in a heritage site that magnifies sacred music and in the heart of the aptly named "daughter of Rome", whose face has long been turned towards the Mediterranean.
Conductor: Joël Suhubiette

Concert - Anima e Corpo Online
Département de musique ancienne du CRR de Perpignan FranceRefectory of the Abbots (Béziers), 14 rue du Puits de la Courte, Béziers
Title :
Anima e Corpo
Programme:
The top students of the early music departments of the ROM are coming together to work on a work that is a milestone in the history of music: La rappresentatione di anima e di corpo, a musical drama by Emilio de' Cavalieri with an Italian libretto by Agostino Manni, premiered in Rome in February 1600.
Twenty or so singing students and as many instrumentalists from the conservatories of Perpignan, Béziers and Montpellier are involved in this project: violins, cellos, recorders, sackbut, serpent, lute, harpsichord, organ and harp.
Josep Cabré, baritone, was a student of Christopher Schmidt and Kurt Widmer in Basel, as well as of Lise Arseguet in Paris and Jordi Albareda in his native Barcelona. He has been a guest soloist with the most prestigious early music ensembles, and is also the founder of the vocal quartet La Colombina, with which he has developed a large part of his concert and recording activity, as well as the Compagnie Musicale, which performs small-scale repertoires from plainsong to polyphony, and recovers Renaissance and Baroque music in Catalonia. He was musical director of the Capilla Peñaflorida in San Sebastian and of the Pamplona Chamber Choir and its professional ensemble Nova Lux from 2009 to 2012. He also teaches at Musikene (the Higher School of Music of the Basque Country) and at the CRR of Perpignan, and is regularly invited to give master classes on ancient repertoires by various university and musical institutions. This activity is reflected in numerous recordings, which have often won awards from specialist critics.
A graduate of the Poitiers and Versailles Conservatories in recorder, Fanette Estrade continued her instrumental training at the Early Music Department in Toulouse, and then at the Higher Conservatory of Music in Barcelona. Since then, she has extended her instrumental practice to the ancient bassoon, the bagpipes and singing. She holds a certificate of aptitude in early music and currently teaches the recorder at the Conservatoire national de région de Perpignan.

Musical visit of the Fabre Museum collections - Les Ombres On-site
Les Ombres FranceMusée Fabre (Montpellier), 39, boulevard Bonne Nouvelle, Montpellier
A musical journey through the permanent collections of the Fabre Museum for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes
Programme :
As part of the European Early Music Days, the Fabre Museum opens its doors to the musicians of the ensemble Les Ombres. During a guided musical and pictorial tour, music and paintings will reveal their secrets. The flute and the viola da gamba will resonate in this majestic setting during an original guided tour, revealing each work through the prism of emotions.
Admission fee: 11 €, upon registration by email at a.belin@montpellier3m.fr, or directly online at https://musee-fabre.tickeasy.com/fr-FR/accueil
From the complicity of Margaux Blanchard and Sylvain Sartre at the Schola Cantorum in Basel, the Ombres project was born. Two voices, two personalities, the same curiosity for forgotten repertoires. The dual leadership of the ensemble reflects its quest for diversity, renewal and modernity. Intergenerational and committed, the Ombres project develops, from chamber music to opera to theatre for young audiences, in a quest for excellence and respect for the ethical values dear to its founders. Concerned about its relationship with the public, the ensemble places emotion at the heart of its proposals. The energy of the gesture, the breath of the dialogue, the work of the light, the choice of repertoires and rhythm: the poetry of the performance shapes a programme whose harmony and architecture must move the spectator. This human, sensory and multidisciplinary approach to the ancient repertoire reveals the echoes of our present with the past. By putting it on stage in music and images, Les Ombres inscribes the baroque into the contemporary world and makes the great issues of our time resonate in the light of past centuries. The colours, atmospheres, poetry and harmony that emerge from their creations accompany the spectator in the discovery of a little-known repertoire and invite him to contemplate this overwhelming concordance of times.
Their recordings have received critical acclaim: 4T TTTT Télérama, Diapason d'or de l'année, Choc de Classica, Quobuzissime, Coup de cœur du jardin des critiques de FranceMmusique, Supersonic Pizzicatto...
After studying piano and flute, Sylvain Sartre discovered the richness of the Renaissance and Baroque repertoires. In all that he undertakes, he gives a very special place to the voice. He works as a conductor with numerous choirs and choirmasters, and directs the baroque pole of the Institute for Vocal Research and Mediterranean Music Education (IRVEM). A keen researcher, he is also involved in the rediscovery of forgotten manuscripts of the 18th century French repertoire, work which has been rewarded by the Fondation de France. Regularly invited as a flutist by such renowned conductors as Hervé Niquet, Leonardo García Alarcón, Chiara Banchini, Jordi Savall and Joël Suhubiette, he places particular emphasis on chamber music, which he performs with the ensembles Pulcinella, Le Consort and Fratres.
Sought after for the generosity of her musical gesture, the violinist Margaux Blanchard is solicited by the musical directors Jordi Savall, Leonardo García Alarcón, François-Xavier Roth, and performs at the Garnier, Bastille, and Comique opera houses, as well as in Versailles, Amsterdam, Cologne, Geneva, Buenos Aires, Tokyo and New York. A complete artist, she has sung in opera from a very young age, and has an instinctive relationship with the stage. Singing guides her in her quest for the "ideal phrasing", dance inspires her rhythmic architecture, with the practice of keyboards, from piano to harpsichord, as a foundation. As a child, she discovered and was initiated into the playing of the treble and bass viol with Ariane Maurette at the CRR in Paris, and deepened her knowledge during her master's degree with Paolo Pandolfo at the Schola Cantorum in Basle, and outside with Jordi Savall, Marianne Muller and Jérôme Hantaï.
In demand as a soloist, chamber musician and continuo player, it was through her encounter with the Argentine harpsichordist and conductor Alarcón that she naturally turned to accompanying singers. He spotted her in 2005 at the Ambronay Academy, and in 2007 invited her to join the continuo of his ensemble Cappella Mediterranea. In 2008 she co-founded the ensemble Les Ombres, and in 2009 she was one of the youngest graduates. Since 2011 she has been teaching the harmonic and melodic duality of her instrument.
She is developing her network in Switzerland and France, and in Occitania she is setting up her ensemble with the flutist Sylvain Sartre, whom she met at the Schola. Together, they compose immersive performances that have made their group a collective in its own right, eager to reach out to all audiences for over ten years.

The Ensemble Vocal Claire Garrone is a flexible and motivated group of about twenty amateur singers. Under the demanding and sensitive direction of Claire Garrone, it explores the great moments of vocal writing, both secular and sacred, from the Middle Ages to the present day. Thanks to the quality of his work and his concerts, he has been able to surround himself with the best professional musicians and instrumental ensembles. The collaboration with great conductors such as Rachid Safir, Alain Zaepfel, Hervé Niquet or Daïnouri Choque (vocal work on sound and its harmonics) has enabled the choir members to become autonomous, curious and attentive, making the EVCG an ensemble that has been noticed by the critics. The Ensemble Vocal Claire Garrone is a member of the Association des chœurs du Languedoc (ACL).
Claire Garrone studied German at the Paul-Valéry University in Montpellier before training as a choral conductor with some of Europe's greatest masters: Philippe Caillard, Michel Piquemal, Bernard Têtu, Éric Ericson, Pierre Cao... She is a choral conductor approved by the Ministry of Culture and has been a full professor of choral singing at the Conservatoire national de région de Montpellier. She was the choral conductor at Opéra Junior when it was created, where she provided vocal training for young choristers and soloists until 2001. She also teaches voice in music therapy at the Paul-Valéry University in Montpellier. She has also taught choral conducting. As a guest conductor, she has participated in festivals and summer academies (early music academy with the Concert Royal in Languedoc-Roussillon). Her taste for accuracy, dynamics, rhythmic rigour, vocal colour, musical finesse and the study of prosody has made her a demanding and noted choral conductor.
After completing his musical studies at the Schola Cantorum in Basel and at the CNSMD in Paris, Yvon Repérant turned to the study of the harpsichord, and very quickly specialised in the practice of basso continuo. He has been regularly called upon by the greatest baroque conductors as an assistant, vocal coach and continuo player. He has also played in renowned early music ensembles, as well as with classical ensembles. In addition to his concert activity, he has always been actively involved in teaching.
Passionate about early music, Sylvie Moquet began studying the viola da gamba first with Arianne Maurette, then with Jordi Savall, with whom she obtained a soloist's diploma at the Schola Cantorum in Basel in January 1983. She then continued her training with Wieland Kuijken. Her professional activities are divided between teaching at the conservatories of Aix-en-Provence and Toulon, concerts and recordings with various ensembles, her activity as a soloist, and the chamber music ensembles with which she regularly performs: Les Witches, Da Pacem and Concerto Soave.
Natacha Palance obtained her singing diploma from the CRR of Nantes in 2011, and in the same year, she came to Montpellier to follow a music therapy course. The mezzo-soprano tackles the baroque and romantic repertoire as well as the contemporary one, but she is particularly fond of the baroque, the melody and the lied.
A versatile musician, Julien Miro is a trombone and sackbut teacher at the Cité des Arts in Montpellier, where he is involved in numerous projects, mainly with early music. For him, the trombone is a real passport to travel through different eras and styles. Surrounded by the Sacqueboutiers de Toulouse with whom he plays, he supports early music with talented local instrumentalists.
