​

A program devoted to the sacred works of François Couperin, a master of elegance and devotion. The Demoiselles Couperin pays tribute to the women who shaped the history of sacred music, the first to make their voices heard within these musical traditions.

Six sopranos reinvent Couperin’s celebrated motets, offering unprecedented depth and recreating the unique atmosphere of the female ensembles found in religious institutions such as the Demoiselles de Saint-Cyr.

At the heart of the program, the monumental Third Leçon de Ténèbres—a masterpiece of virtuosity and emotion—radiates alongside recently rediscovered works.
