Awards and reviews

Christmas 2023

[The Noëls] and the Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus and Agnus Dei are sung with joy and gentle intensity by Ensemble Correspondances, although director Sébastien Daucé shies away from some of the rougher-edged textures that might have enhanced the work ’s popular festive spirit.

November 2023

The instrumental textures provided by Ensemble Correspondances are testament to their virtuosity, the ensemble’s tasteful ornamentation and nuanced articulation continually highlighting layers of beauty and intricacy in Charpentier’s music.
