Maîtrise Notre-Dame de Paris live in Paris

Experience Maîtrise Notre-Dame de Paris live on June 30th

Maîtrise Notre-Dame de Paris, a renowned choir of boys and men, will perform at Notre Dame Cathedral on June 30, 2026. The ensemble is historically linked to the liturgical life of the cathedral and specializes in sacred polyphony, Gregorian chant, and works spanning the medieval to contemporary periods. Their repertoire frequently includes compositions by composers closely associated with Notre Dame itself, such as Louis Vierne and Gabriel Fauré, who served as organists there.

Notre Dame Cathedral, located on the Île de la Cité in Paris, is considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture. Construction began in 1163 and was largely complete by 1260, though additions and modifications continued for centuries. It has served as a focal point for French Catholicism and national identity for over eight centuries, witnessing significant historical events including coronations and royal weddings. The cathedral sustained substantial damage from a fire in April 2019; ongoing restoration efforts aim to return it to its former glory. This concert marks a significant moment in the cathedral’s re-emergence as a functioning space for worship and musical performance following this period of reconstruction.
