🎻 Original soundtrack: composed by Guillaume Coignard and Samuel Sené, known for Bond Symphonique, The Lion King, and Disneyland Paris shows, the new original soundtrack for The Celestial Odyssey reinterprets Bach, Debussy, Verdi, and Satie in never-before-heard versions—each night elevated by a live choir, one of the best choirs in the region.
📖 New story: amazed, a child pushes open the cathedral doors. It comes to life, responds to him, and leads him on the odyssey of Saint-Bonaventure—from its medieval origins to the present day.
