Les Talens Lyriques

Founded in 1991 by harpsichordist conductor Christophe Rousset, Les Talens Lyriques has become one of the most accomplished cultural institutions in France by illuminating a long, often forgotten history of diverse European music. The ensemble is composed of gifted musicians from a multitude of backgrounds and generations. In addition to performing all across the globe, Les Talens Lyriques leads educational residencies and workshops as well as other programs dedicated to equipping students with the knowledge and practice needed to enter the music profession. In these ways, the ensemble simultaneously brings a rich musical tradition into a contemporary forum and ensures its continuation for generations to come.
