Ensemble

The Ensemble Musique Cordiale is made up of a choir (50 singers) and a chamber orchestra. The choir members are from high quality amateur choirs in Europe.

They come together once a year in Seillans where they rehearse repertoire which is performed at concerts during the festival. The orchestra is mainly professional where players delight in spending two weeks of their summer to play in one of the most idyllic parts of France.

Members of the orchestra hail from the London Symphony Orchestra, BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, Manchester Camerata, Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich, Orchestra of St. Martins in the Field, Royal Academy of Music, Royal College of Music, Royal Northern College of Music and other European institutions.
