As an integral part of Le Concert Spirituel project, each season offers outreach and educational activities linked to the season programme.
Our Outreach and Education activities
Le Concert Spirituel, with its conductor Hervé Niquet and its instrumentalists and singers, is always ready to listen to a project that meets a desire for music, and is keen to pass on its passion for Baroque music to as many people as possible. Throughout the year, it offers cultural events aimed at all kinds of audiences, from neophytes to music lovers, including out-of-town audiences, schoolchildren and musicians in training.
Customised workshops
Le Concert Spirituel takes advantage of every possible opportunity and approach to baroque music to offer authentic, personalised performances through fun and educational activities, awareness-raising workshops and artistic practice. The ensemble is strongly committed to promoting access to music for all, and to strengthening social ties and living together through inclusive initiatives.
Through partnerships with cultural, educational and social organisations, Le Concert Spirituel aims to develop its cultural activities throughout Paris, the Ile-de-France region and the regions:
• young people,
• with our elders,
• with schoolchildren,
• with amateur artists through participatory concerts,
• with students, through professional integration.
Expertise offered to partner institutions
With its partners (concert halls and festivals), Le Concert Spirituel is involved in operations to raise awareness among new audiences, particularly the youngest.
• It opens its rehearsals to schoolchildren and meets the students, offering an opportunity for a privileged moment of exchange with the conductor and musicians.
• It regularly organises meetings/conferences between artists and a wide variety of audiences to discuss accessible programmes.
Our actions for inclusion
Le Concert Spirituel works primarily with children at the Hôpital Necker - Enfants malades (AP-HP). Driven by a desire to bring a little comfort to hospitalised children through music, we run participative and stimulating workshops built around dreamlike and poetic works and operas.
Our activities for schoolchildren
Le Concert Spirituel offers schoolchildren, particularly primary and secondary school pupils, the chance to immerse themselves in an opera from the Baroque repertoire, going from spectator to actor over the course of a season.
Over a period of 10 to 20 sessions in schools or at rehearsal venues, Le Concert Spirituel, together with its teaching teams, develops tailor-made projects with its musicians, ranging from introductory workshops to singing practice, in order to create a stage, choral, visual or video object with the pupils.
The activities organised by :
• discovery workshop
• musical analysis
• meet the artists (soloists, directors, conductors, choir)
• vocal/choral practice with a singer from the ensemble
• writing and directing workshops
• collaborative performance (different formats: theatre, choir, video, etc.) in front of pupils and families.
