Edition 2024 — Journées de l'Orgue

The 2024 edition of the Journées de l'Orgue was held from August 6th to 8th at the Saint-Robert Abbey Church on the theme "From Baroque to Classicism". Three recitals at 6:30 PM explored how the 1727 organ's aesthetic allows for an authentic interpretation of baroque and classical musical conceptions, highlighting the stylistic differences between these two major eras.

2024 Edition — From Baroque to Classicism

The 2024 Journées de l'Orgue explored the theme "From Baroque to Classicism", highlighting the unique ability of the Abbey Church's organ, with its 1727 aesthetic, to do justice to the two major musical currents that marked the 17th and 18th centuries.

Recital Program

  • Tuesday, August 6th at 6:30 PM: Recital by Jose Garcia Martin
  • Wednesday, August 7th at 6:30 PM: Recital by Olivier Salandini
  • Thursday, August 8th at 6:30 PM: Organ and voice recital with Jean-Luc Perrot and Damien Rivière

The three evenings allowed listeners to perceive the nuances between baroque expressiveness and classical clarity, served by the exceptional sound palette of the Casadéen instrument.
