The 2008 Festival | Artists
Presentation
The artists - creators of sound, meaning and emotion
Whether they are upcoming or renowned internationally, the artists and ensembles invited by Sinfonia en Perigord have all journeyed along diverse paths and performed in different musical languages.
The Festival and regular season both serve as a medium through which these artists can freely perform baroque, classical or romantic works with emotion, inspiration and pride.
At every concert, musicians and singers pique our curiosity and constantly present us with delightful moments.
Go behind the scenes and discover the artistic world of these creators of sound, meaning and emotion.
