CHARPENTIER - GRANDS MOTETS

Les Arts Florissants, Choir & orchestra

William Christie, Direction

Les Arts Florissants partnered with Château de Versailles Spectacles to deliver an exclusive filmed performance of Charpentier's Grands Motets, including a rare interpretation of the Te Deum H. 147, one of eight Te Deums composed by Charpentier and significantly less well-known than H. 146. Sublime performances of the Magnificat H. 77, the Litanies à la Vierge and the Nuptia sacrae complete this exquisitely crafted programme by William Christie and Les Arts Florissants. 

Concert recorded at the Royal Chapel of Versailles on 28 February 2021 thanks to the support of the American Friends of Les Arts Florissants.
