Programme

Overview

Roberto Alagna offers you a recital of sacred inspiration in the most beautiful churches and cathedrals of France.

“In these places with collected atmospheres, a power descends upon us which soothes us. I like to linger there, alone, to think and meditate. I also like what a church represents: this manifestation of men's faith for God. It is this faith that builds churches. I compare it to my art which also arouses immense devotions. We believe in something, we commune with beauty. likes to believe that, throughout time, each artist has contributed to the construction of the immense cathedral that is lyrical art.”
