Paul Agnew will perform at the Philharmonie de Paris on February 9, 2027. Agnew is a highly regarded countertenor specializing in Baroque and early music performance practice. His vocal style is noted for its clarity, agility, and expressive ornamentation, frequently interpreting works by composers such as Handel, Purcell, and Monteverdi. He often directs ensembles from the stage, showcasing a deep understanding of historical performance context alongside virtuosic vocal ability.

The Philharmonie de Paris is a major concert hall complex inaugurated in January 2015, located in the 19th arrondissement of Paris. Designed by Jean Nouvel, the complex features a Grande Salle with a vineyard-style seating arrangement intended to maximize acoustic intimacy and visibility for all audience members. It’s built on a site previously occupied by a music school and aims to be a comprehensive center for musical education and performance.

The Philharmonie de Paris houses several concert spaces including the Grande Salle (approximately 2,400 seats), a smaller chamber music hall, rehearsal rooms and educational facilities.
