D-1 before the great musical story!
We can’t wait to bring you our next album, The Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross, performed with passion by La Chapelle Rhénane. These first words of Christ will resonate with you like never before.
Prepare to be touched to the depths of your soul. First extract already available
The duo Anthemis was born in 2017 out of an irresistible need for chamber music on the part of its two protagonists, both originally from Nancy. One, a concert pianist and professor at the Metz Conservatory, the other, the principal clarinetist of the National Orchestra of Metz Grand-Est. These kindred spirits recognized each other behind the scenes and in the antechambers of the beautiful concert halls where they have had the privilege of performing regularly. For six years now, they have tirelessly explored the most beautiful pages of French, English, American, and German chamber music in order to offer them to you generously in concerts and recordings, without artifice, like a beautiful bouquet of freshly picked wildflowers.
Founded in 2001 by tenor Benoît Haller, the Chapelle Rhénane is an ensemble of solo singers and instrumentalists. The team is dedicated to revisiting the great works of the European vocal repertoire. Its ambition is, through concerts and recordings, to reveal in these works the emotion, humanity and modernity capable of appealing to a wide contemporary audience. The challenge constantly taken up by the Chapelle Rhénane is to demonstrate that so-called classical music does not belong to the past, that it is not a collection of sound monuments to be contemplated with distance and respect, that it is not the preserve of a learned and privileged elite.

Marion Fermé is a recorder player with an international career. She masters both the ancient and contemporary repertoires for the recorder with equal ease.
She is a prizewinner in international competitions (Musica Antiqua in Bruges as a recorder trio and in Montreal as a soloist). She has performed in numerous festivals throughout Europe with her various ensembles. Marion Fermé is a graduate of the Royal Conservatory in The Hague, as well as the Sorbonne (BA in English and Russian) and Sciences Po Paris.
She has been artistic director of the ensemble The Theater of Music since 2006, which became its eponymous ensemble in 2013. A fan of unusual instrumental combinations, she also has a duo In VENTO, accordion/recorder, which plays music by Bach, Vivaldi and contemporary music. Committed to contemporary music as a soloist and in ensembles, she works with the German ensemble Effusions and regularly collaborates with composers to create new compositions for the recorder.
She teaches recorder and chamber music (Certificat d’aptitude de musique ancienne) at the Conservatoire Darius Milhaud in Paris (14th arrondissement).
Ambre Vuillermoz, accordion
Ambre Vuillermoz is a founding member of a number of ensembles with varied aesthetics, in which she seeks to make the most of the rich potential of her instrument, always in a creative and demanding spirit. She explores the original chamber repertoire and transcriptions with Avès duo (piano and accordion), In VENTO (recorder and accordion), opera (l’Orpiment company), jazz (Ouroboros) and world music (Syrto). As a soloist, she makes the most of her instrument’s repertoire and regularly works with composers to develop new works. She is also particularly attached to eighteenth-century harpsichord music, playing the key works (Bach, Scarlatti, etc.) as well as those by lesser-known composers that she likes to rediscover on the accordion.
After graduating in engineering, Sophie Lacaze turned to music. A graduate of the Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris, she went on to study composition at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana di Siena (Italy) with Franco Donatoni and Ennio Morricone, attended Pierre Boulez’s classes at the Collège de France and took up musical theatre with Georges Aperghis at the Centre Acanthes. In 2002, she was invited to take up a residency at the Electronic Music Unit at the University of Adelaide (Australia).
In 2023, her catalogue includes over 80 works, ranging from solo pieces to orchestral works, including two operas and mixed works, which are regularly performed in France and abroad.
Performers include the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France (dir. Pierre-André Valade), the Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire (dir. Aziz Shokhakimov), the Orchestre National d’Auvergne (dir. Baldur Brönnimann), the Orchestre de Perpignan Méditerranée (dir. Daniel Tosi), the BBC Symphony Orchestra (dir.

A winner of several international competitions, Sophie Lacaze has also been awarded the Grand Prix Lycéen des Compositeurs (2009) and the SACEM’s Claude Arrieu Prize (2010).
Sophie Lacaze does not belong to any particular school or musical movement, but has forged a personal and original aesthetic that seeks to restore to music its original vocations, such as ritual, incantation and dance, and its links with nature, and in which timbre plays a central role. It was during her first trip to Australia in 1996 that she discovered the culture of the Aborigines. Since then, it has been essential for her to return to the very essence of the art of music, to its fundamental purity.
A committed artist, she has been defending contemporary music for over 15 years, directing festivals such as Turbulences Sonores in Montpellier and Musiques Démesurées in Clermont-Ferrand, and giving lectures. She is also the founder of the French association of women composers Plurielles 34.
