Synopsis/Details

 

 

Dynamic and eclectic, the Hélios orchestra has established itself since its creation in 2014.

Its artistic director, Paul Savalle, promotes the professional integration of young musicians through orchestral practice. Thus, young graduates mingle with orchestral musicians, conductors and experienced soloists, in optimal working conditions.

From baroque music to contemporary music, the programs are varied, the repertoire is both symphonic and choral, the orchestra associating itself with departmental and regional choirs.
 
Through collaboration with various conductors, the musicians tackle a rich repertoire while broadening their interpretive range. They all come from the major French conservatories, some belonging to a national orchestra.

From the string quartet to the symphony orchestra, including the brass ensemble, the orchestra constantly broadens its audience by modulating its composition. The "strings" ensemble performs in the most prestigious churches in Paris, allowing the public to discover a very rich architectural heritage.
