During the serene and heartwarming Advent and end-of-year season, we invite listeners to immerse themselves in the atmosphere, imagination, and sensations of elegant French music. Thanks to the enchanting power of this exquisite art form, let yourself be transported to the charmingly elegant Paris, wrapped in the scents of Christmas.

The program spans a wide range of French composers’ works from different eras and aesthetics—Francis Poulenc’s sacred choral motets, Olivier Messiaen’s mystical celebration of the eternity of Jesus, and Claude Debussy’s orientally inspired Rhapsody performed by two Grand Music Award winners: saxophonist Aigars Raumanis and organist Aigars Reinis.
