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.

Church of the Madeleine
The parish of La Madeleine wishes to ensure a visible presence in the heart of Paris and to be attentive to our contemporaries. We speak of the base to describe the stone massifs that form the foundation of the church. But this base is also made of living stones made up of associations attentive to the wounded of life such as Ozanam Madeleine, the Espace Formation Informatique. The Foyer de la Madeleine serves more than three hundred meals every day at lunchtime with the aim of encouraging people to meet people who work or spend time in the neighbourhood.
