Our Take

Prepare to have your ears transported to the opulent halls of Versailles with Les Chantres du Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles' latest release, Charpentier: Vepres Pour Saint Louis. Conductor Olivier Schneebeli leads this talented ensemble through a stunning performance of Marc-Antoine Charpentier's sacred masterpiece.

From the grandiose opening of the Vespers to the intricate harmonies of the motets, every note is brought to life with exquisite precision and nuance. The choir's voices blend seamlessly, creating a heavenly sound that is truly awe-inspiring. Schneebeli's direction is masterful, drawing out the emotional depth of Charpentier's compositions with a deft touch.

The instrumental accompaniment is equally exceptional, with the Baroque ensemble delivering a rich and vibrant sound that perfectly complements the vocal performances. Each instrument shines in its own right, adding layers of texture and colour to the overall tapestry of sound.

Whether you're a seasoned fan of Baroque music or a newcomer to the genre, Charpentier: Vepres Pour Saint Louis is a must-listen. This album is a true gem, showcasing the talents of both the choir and ensemble in a dazzling display of musical prowess. So sit back, close your eyes, and let yourself be transported to the splendour of Versailles with this extraordinary recording.
