The Chapelle de la Trinité, an architectural jewel in the Baroque style, welcomes the Lyon Opera Chorus for a truly moving experience.
Benedict Kearns is the new permanent chorus master at the Lyon Opera House. Here, the British musician seeks to build a bridge between his native land and his adopted home, bringing the magical colours of Camille Saint-Saëns and Maurice Ravel together with the refinement of Benjamin Britten and Ralph Vaughan Williams for a truly poetic concert.
