📋About
Les Musicales de Conques constituent le volet musical de la saison culturelle portée par l'Association Artistique et Culturelle de Conques, sous la direction artistique de Christopher Gibert (Anima Nostra). La programmation fait dialoguer le répertoire classique baroque, avec des compositeurs comme Bach, Telemann ou Haendel, et les musiques du monde et la chanson, dans le cadre de l'Abbatiale de Conques et de l'Auditorium du Centre Européen de Conques.
La saison 2026 réunit notamment Étienne Manchon, l'ensemble vocal Dulci Jubilo dirigé par Christopher Gibert, l'Ensemble Samanûr, l'Orchestre Les Passions dirigé par Jean-Marc Andrieu, ainsi que La Chapelle Rhénane dirigée par Benoît Haller. Cette dernière formation clôt l'année le dimanche 20 décembre 2026 à 15h en l'Abbatiale de Conques, avec « Le Messie » de Haendel, présenté dans une version dite « director's cut ».
