The Festival de Printemps (Spring Festival) is finally back with the public!
After two editions transposed to digital format due to the pandemic, the Spring Festival makes its grand return in 2022. The event, co-presented by the Département de la Vendée and Les Arts Florissants, will invite the public to a series of concerts to explore sacred baroque music with the artists of Les Arts Florissants, in the exceptional setting of the Southern Vendée churches.
For the occasion, Paul Agnew - director of the Festival and co-musical director of Les Arts Florissants - and William Christie propose a program devoted to a little-known Baroque composer: the German Heinrich Schütz (1585-1672), of whom we celebrate this year the 350th anniversary... and to his famous compatriot, Johann Sebastian Bach.
