The association Les Amis de l’Orgue helps promote the organ at Notre Dame de l’Assomption Church and its music by organizing concerts this Sunday; it invites us to discover …

Philippe BROCARD was introduced to music through the piano at the age of 5. After studying successively with Claire DELCROS and Denise RIVIERE, he discovered singing through the Maîtrise Saint Louis de Gonzague. Currently a soloist with the Republican Guard Orchestra under the direction of François Boulanger, he has gained particular recognition for his regular performances at state dinners at the Élysée Palace. As artistic director of the Estivales de Puisaye, he was elevated in 2007 to the rank of Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters. In addition to his career as a singer, he is a pianist and co-composer of the stage music for the play “Le Crime de l’Orphelin,” which premiered in 2016 (and has already been performed more than 100 times) at the Théâtre du Ranelagh (Paris) and the Avignon Festival (La Luna).

Laurent JOCHUM is the titular organist of the Cavaillé-Coll grand organ at the Church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste in Belleville, Paris—where he succeeds such renowned musicians as Pierre Vidal—and of the organ in the chapel of the Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague middle and high school. For several years, he served as accompanist for the “Petits Chanteurs de la Basilique de Fourvière” in Lyon, and as part of his national service, he was pianist and organist for the French Army Choir in 2000. Currently, he also works with Sophie CHIU’s Saint Louis de Gonzague Children’s Choir as well as with Francis BARDOT’s Choirs.
