M.A. Charpentier at the Royal Chapel of Versailles

An excellent example of French high baroque performed by Le Concert des Nations and La Capella Reial de Catalunya under Jordi Savall's direction at the Royal Chapel of Versailles to commemorete the 310th anniversary of Charpentier’s death.

Directed by Olivier Simonnet, M.A. Charpentier at the Royal Chapel of Versailles leans on a strong ensemble — Jordi Savall, Le Concert des Nations, La Capella Reial de Catalunya — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2014.
