PARIS 6: HANDEL-HALVORSEN PASSACAGLIA

SAINTE-CHAPELLE AT NIGHT

'ARCHITECTURE IS FROZEN MUSIC' - GOETHE

The cathedral of Sainte-Chapelle in Paris is arguably one of the world's greatest musical venues. It is also one of the oldest, most compelling and most intimate settings in which to hear and see a performance. We had the good fortune to experience a recent performance of the Handel-Halvorsen Passacaglia in the sanctuary itself. While the video is brief and imperfect, I hope it will inspire you to listen to other recordings of this magnificent piece.
