Help us to perpetuate a musical tradition of the highest quality at Notre-Dame de Paris
The association "Musique Sacrée à Notre-Dame de Paris" promotes the transmission of the musical heritage of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral by training singers (150 pupils and students aged 5 to 28), organizing concerts and providing liturgical animation in the cathedral.
"Musique Sacrée à Notre-Dame de Paris" is responsible for coordinating all the cathedral's musical activities :
Teaching singing to 150 pupils and students
Providing musical entertainment for the cathedral's celebrations
Organizing concerts and performances in the cathedral and abroad
Creating and performing new repertoires
Producing music recordings
The destruction caused by the fire at the Cathedral in 2019 and then the pandemic have seriously weakened the association. Today, we're preparing to reopen Notre-Dame in December 2024 !
Please help us to be ready for this major world event and to ensure the future of our savoir-faire!
The association was created in 1991 by the joint will of the Ministry of Culture, the City of Paris and the Archdiocese of Paris. This decision was based on the ambition to preserve the excellence of musical practice associated with the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris, a major landmark in the history of France.
