Initiated by Stradivaria, a baroque orchestra from Nantes, the Apartés have the particularity of lighting the musicians with candles in the Chapel of the Immaculate, creating a special atmosphere. The ensemble seeks to reach all audiences. The day of the concert, the musicians meet the schools and the next day, they will play in the city’s nursing homes. This formula is starting to spread in the region.
