Technopolis 20 presents in Paphos the Youth Choir of the Rhine National Opera in Strasbourg, during their tour in Cyprus, at the Markideio Theatre, on Thursday, 10th of April 2025, at 7pm.
The Petits Chanteurs de Strasbourg was founded in 2001 and today it is seen as a fine reference in the musical life of Alsace. Its characteristics are a eclectic repertoire, original works and a high artistic quality, fruits of a close cooperation with the Opéra national du Rhin. (OnR).
Since 2013 the ensemble has been directed by the Franco-Argentinian conductor and composer Luciano Bibiloni, who will present with 32 choir singers – teenagers and adults, the oratorio “Annelies” by the British composer James Whitbourn. On stage they will be joined by the following musicians: Evgenia Selina – Soprano, Julien Moquet – Violin, Antoine Martynciow – Cello, George Georgiou – Clarinet, Hélène Herzberger – Piano. The programme will also include works by Claude Debussy και Gabriel Fauré.
Since 2009 the choir is proud to be associated with the ONR’s lyric program successfully performing on its prestigious stages. Additionally, the Petits Chanteurs de Strasbourg develop their own concert program in France and abroad, and thus promoting the image of the Opera, Strasbourg and the Alsace region.
The Maîtrise is composed of 130 choristers, both girls and boys, aged 7-18, and divided according to their age into five sub-choirs, thus allowing the Maîtrise to adjust to the ability and background of each individual. A male voice choir completes the ensemble opening up the possibility for the Petits Chanteurs de Strasbourg to perform a wide spectrum of vocal repertoire, from soloist to large choir, including equal and mixed voices.
Our choristers benefit from high quality vocal training, choral and stage work classes, several times a week from a team of dedicated chorus masters, singing teachers, accompanists and many other professionals.
