Celebrating Christmas with Le Concert d’Astrée

Celebrating Christmas with Le Concert d’AstréeEarly music expert Emmanuelle Haïm leads seasonal gems with the choir from one of the foremost ensembles in the field of historically informed performance practice.

“Unleashing the wild and daring side of the Baroque has been [Emmanuelle] Haïm’s mission for decades” (The New York Times). And now, she unlocks its festive side, too. As Artist Collaborator, Haïm reunites the Los Angeles Philharmonic with the choir from her acclaimed early music ensemble, Le Concert d’Astrée, for a special holiday celebration.  

Joyous and uplifting, Gloria is one of Vivaldi’s most beloved pieces of sacred music. Strings, trumpet, and oboe burst into jubilant action as the singers cry out “Glory to God on high!” Haïm brings her “passionate, energetic approach…one that is as attractive as it is infectious” (Bachtrack) to Vivaldi’s choral masterpiece as well as his playfully eclectic and rigorous Concerti for Diverse Instruments.

The program begins with Corelli’s “Christmas Concerto,” a piece from 1690—a time when dancing was still prohibited in the church. Despite this, Corelli blended recognizable rhythms and abstract tempos from France’s most popular dances.
