Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, one of Italy’s leading orchestras, will perform at the Philharmonie de Paris on November 30, 2026. The orchestra boasts a long and distinguished history, tracing its origins back to 1585, though its current form developed significantly in the 20th century. Its repertoire is broad, encompassing works from the Baroque period through contemporary compositions, with a particular strength in Italian opera and symphonic music. The orchestra is known for its refined sound and historically informed performance practices when appropriate, alongside interpretations of standard repertoire.

The Philharmonie de Paris, inaugurated in January 2015, is a modern concert hall complex located in the Parc de la Villette. Designed by Jean Nouvel, it features a main concert hall – the Grande Salle Pierre Boulez – renowned for its acoustics and modular design allowing for varied configurations. The complex also includes smaller performance spaces and exhibition areas dedicated to music education and exploration. It represents a significant investment in France’s musical infrastructure and serves as a major venue for both national and international ensembles. The Philharmonie aims to be accessible to diverse audiences and promotes musical discovery across genres.
