STORY: NEW YEAR’S EVE CONCERT AT SAINT-EUSTACHE CHURCH

On December 31st, 2024, the Saint-Eustache Church will be transformed into an exceptional concert hall to celebrate the New Year. On the programme for this magical evening: a musical journey through the seasons, guided by the spellbinding melodies of Vivaldi's Four Seasons.

 

This masterpiece of Baroque music, in which each season is depicted with astonishing vividness and precision, will be performed in its entirety. The sunny melodies of spring, the warmth of summer, the melancholy of autumn and the rigours of winter will all come to life under the virtuoso fingers of the musicians.

 

To round off this exquisite programme, the concert will feature other exceptional works from the classical repertoire.

 

Are you ready for a gentle reverie? Pachelbel's Canon will invite you to let your mind wander under the beautiful vaults of the church of Saint-Eustache. Schubert's richly textured Ave Maria will touch the most sensitive of hearts. Finally, Mozart's Little Night Music is the perfect way to end the year in spirit and elation.

 

The exceptional acoustics of the church, combined with the quality of the performers, promise an unforgettable and one-of-a-kind musical experience. This concert will be an opportunity to discover or rediscover these masterpieces in a warm and intimate setting.

 

Now you know where to end the year in style and with music.
