Le Concert de l'Hostel Dieu

Le Concert de l'Hostel Dieu is a Lyon-based ensemble of international renown. It was created in 1992 by Franck-Emmanuel Comte, at the time a student at the CNSMD de Lyon. With the support of the doctors of the centuries-old Lyonnais medical institution Hôtel-Dieu, the ensemble presented two concert seasons from 1992 to 1994 on the campus of the Grand Hôtel-Dieu. In 1994 the ensemble left the medical institution’s campus and began performing in various auditoriums and churches throughout the Lyonnais metropolitan area. In the 2000s the ensemble  established its reputation in France and then abroad, through numerous concert tours.

Le Concert de l'Hostel Dieu recorded a first CD in 1997 (Alceste/G.F. Handel), which was followed by more than 20 other recordings. The most recent, released in October 2020 (La Francesina/G.F. Handel), received numerous accolades from the international press.
 
In addition to their frequent concert performances, the ensemble regularly pursues additional enriching artistic collaborations. It has also developed and realized collaborative projects with artists and ensembles from outside of Europe. These projects have led to residencies and concert tours both in France and in our collaborators’ host countries.
