Eglise ND d’Espérance (Le Suquet), Cannes
Sacred songs from Spain, France, Italia, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Israel, Tunisia…
In the frame of its 125th anniversary, and to promote fraternity, the Choir of Notre-Dame de Bon Voyage, proposes a trip through sacred music from the Mediterranean area.
About 25 countries are located around the Mediterranean sea and their musical traditions can be very diversified, even within a single land. It is therefore impossible to be exhaustive, so the program was mainly set upon diversity : across about ten countries, we will encounter medieval songs, contemporary hymns, folk music, formal compositions, devotional songs, liturgical hymns, trance music…
The program consists in songs from :
- Orthodox Greece
- Medieval Spain
- Stambeli rituals from Tunisia
- Byzantine Lebanon

- Nice County folk
- spiritual Turkey
- etc.
