Created in 1930, the Symphony of Psalms testifies to Stravinsky's fervent return to religion. Unclassifiable, “this prayer that bites, this prayer of steel” as Leonard Bernstein described it, completes a fresco of piety of great evocative force, like a wall of icons sculpted in the harmony of an alliance with summit between Les Métaboles and the Strasbourg Philharmonic Orchestra.

Les Métaboles and Léo Warynski shine the spotlight on the repertoire for multiple choirs. The principle of writing separate choirs experienced its Baroque golden age under the vaults of the Sistine Chapel – witness Allegri’s Miserere for two choirs, the sacred works of Marc-Antoine Charpentier, who admired these polyphonies during his trip to Italy, or Orazio Benevolo’s Missa tu es petrus, for four choirs, recently resurrected by Les Métaboles. Composed on the same principle of spatialization, Love by Juta Pranulyte will echo them.

Les Métaboles, in small numbers, present Romance du Soir, a series of concerts to showcase the gems of a cappella vocal music, from the Renaissance to the 20th century.

This concert invites you on a captivating sound journey with exceptional works. Luigi Nono, in Das Atmende Klarsein for choir, flute and electronics, explores the limits of breathing and sound clarity, creating an immersive and meditative atmosphere. In contrast, Les Prophéties des Sybilles by Roland de Lassus, a work for choir, transports us to the Renaissance with its rich harmonies and prophetic texts, offering a deeply moving and spiritual musical experience
