2025 - 2026 Season Les Talens on the Big Screen!

As the culminating event of its cycle dedicated to Jean-Baptiste Forqueray—and just days after the Cadets Club inspired by his work—Cadets en scène once again welcomes the outstanding duo of Atsushi Sakaï (viola da gamba) and Christophe Rousset at the Temple de la rue de Grenelle in Paris.

Three years after their memorable Marin Marais concert, they return with a programme devoted to the French viol master of the mid-18th century, alongside works by Bach, celebrating the release of their latest recording together.

Les Talens Lyriques, named after the subtitle of Rameau’s 1739 opera Les Fêtes d’Hébé, was founded in 1991 by harpsichordist and conductor Christophe Rousset.

Spanning a wide vocal and instrumental repertoire from the early Baroque to the dawn of Romanticism, the ensemble seeks to shed new light on music history’s great masterpieces—viewed through the prism of rare or previously unperformed works that often serve as the missing links in Europe’s musical heritage. Musicological research and editorial work are central to the ensemble’s mission, playing a vital role in its artistic identity and international reputation.
