English Christmas polyphonies

For Christmas 2025, Paul Agnew and the singers of Les Arts Florissants take you on a musical journey through England with this new polyphonic program, featuring composers such as William Byrd and many others.

In the Christian tradition, the birth of Jesus is both the founding event and the heart of the liturgical year. For centuries, it has inspired a rich musical repertoire, a veritable treasure trove that has been continually enriched over the ages.

Designed for the majestic setting of the abbey church of Fontevraud, this concert will allow the voices to resonate in all their purity and power, without instrumental accompaniment. A unique encounter between the magic of Christmas and the timeless emotion of polyphonic singing.
